Description du livre Etat : Good. Anne is the quiet, clever but generally overlooked wife of powerful Hollywood producer. Inadvertently, and somewhat to her own surprise, Anne starts a book group for a small group of her husband's colleagues in the movie industry. Like a modern-day Scheherazade, she tells the book group stories - about books, writers and reading - and talks about how these stories can shape our lives. The movie moguls fall hard for literature, and like topsy, the book group grows and grows, in size and numbers and influence, until something unexpected and terrible happens, and Anne finds her life and marriage falling apart. Determined to keep her family - her husband, Howard and their much-loved only son, Sam - together, Anne fights back the only way she knows how, through literature. Assured, clever, witty and tender, You or Someone Like You is about reading and books, tribes and identity - whether chosen or inherited - and how we understand or translate our world through literature. It is a book about books, about finding your place in the world, and about love. 392 pages. N° de réf. du vendeur 1363687
