A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

At the dawn of the 21st century, Adam Kellas finds himself hurled on a journey between continents and cultures. From the war-torn mountains of Afghanistan to the elegant dinner tables of north London and then the marshlands of the American South, only the memory of the beautiful, elusive Astrid offers the possibility of hope. 
    With all the explosive drama of The People’s Act of Love, this is a spellbinding tale of folly and the pursuit of love, from one of today’s most talented and visionary writers.
