Partea cea mai puțin interesantă pentru mine a fost copilăria lui Posy în Admiral House și leitmotivul care dă titlul romanului, camera cu fluturi. Posy are o relație minunată cu tatăl său, pilot în război, iar pierderea sa îi va marca întreaga existență. Relația cu mama sa devine aproape inexistentă după moartea tatălui său, aceasta rezumandu-se la câteva scrisori în decursul a mulți ani. Însă prezentul lui Posy este cât se poate de interesant. Aceasta are 70 de ani, este stăpâna casei Amiral, are doi fii diferiți precum apa și uleiul, ambii cu situații complicate. Well, I couldn't ask, because he wasn't here, but I had to trust and believe there was a very good reason for the murders in our butterfly kingdom.Be warned - you will need tissues. Close to the end I found myself sobbing violently, not pretty crying with tears rolling silently down my cheeks, but the full on waterworks as I railed against the injustice of fate. But I finished with a sigh of pleasure and a smile of satisfaction. the dress—a shimmering cream 1930s vintage piece that covered the lumps and bumps that age had brought, and didn’t make her look like a ship in full sail. blogtour Adventure Ancient Egypt Art History Australia Book Blogger Bookliterati Book Recommendation Book review Christmas Contemporary Fiction Crime Del Rey Doubleday Emmeline Kirby and Gregory Longdon Mystery Fantasy Festive Reads Florence Folklore Harper Collins Historical Fiction History Independently Published Italy Karen Swan Literary Fiction Magic Mantle Books Melville House Murder Mystery Myth Orenda Books Pan Macmillan Penguin Random House Psychological thriller Romance Secrets Simon and Schuster Supernatural Suspense thriller Venice Women's Fiction Zaffre Books Book title Search for: Search Search Recent Comments

This epic saga was beautifully written with enticingly mysterious and cleverly intertwining storylines that were threaded with a few heavy secrets and shattering tragedies that this grievously wily author used to taunt and tease me while brutally dangling them rather barbarously out of my reach. I was invested and immersed in the complexities of the characters’ overlapping and oddly compelling family dynamics after being bewitched and pleasantly enthralled by Posy’s early childhood history and interactions with her beloved father. But there was something not quite right about her household and I had numerous suspicions and licentious theories, many of which were incorrect, but I wasn’t too far afield as the long-held secrets had been scandalous in their time as well as heartbreaking. This was my first experience reading this master-storyteller and where have I been, she has written thirty books already? Everyone in this book has secrets. Very minor secrets that get blown way out of proportion to create the drama necessary for the storyline. No one will talk to anyone else to even give them a CHANCE to understand what is going on. Como de costumbre entrañables siempre las narraciones de Lucinda, ya puede ser la historia dura pero la sutileza que utiliza siempre lo convierte en algo amable de leer. Much of the story is set in Southwold, Suffolk. Do you have a personal connection to the town, or is there something else that inspired you to write about it?Then a face appears from the past – Freddie, her first love, who abandoned her and left her heartbroken fifty years ago. Already struggling to cope with her son’s inept business dealings, and the sudden reappearance of her younger son after ten years in Australia, Posy is reluctant to trust in Freddie’s renewed affection. And unbeknown to Posy, Freddie – and Admiral House – have a devastating secret to reveal . . . No soy muy dada a historias corales, de ahí mi puntuación. es un libro muy correcto y con una buena estructura, pese a que después de leer el primer tercio todavía no tuviera muy claro de qué iba y qué me iba a encontrar. Para mí es la historia de esa mansión y de sus habitantes. Historias duras, historias felices, algunas demasiado increíbles... se lee bien y entretiene. Es el único libro que he leído de la autora, pero sí sé que no soy muy dada a estas historias. siempre he pensado que es más sencillo centrarse en menos personajes porque, al final, te cuenta poco de cada historia y te quedas con ganas de saber más de unas y con la sensación de que otras sobran En el presente Posy se enfrenta a la difícil decisión de si vender la propiedad de su casa familiar “Admiral house” ya que al ser una mansión con un gran terreno requiere mucho mantenimiento y ella no cuenta con el dinero necesario ni con la fortaleza física para acometer las tareas necesarias. Asimismo durante este periodo Posy se reencuentra con un antiguo amor que acabó bruscamente y sin que ella llegara a conocer el motivo. ¿Podrá a sus 70 años volver a sentir las mariposas en el estómago? ¿Sabrá finalmente por qué se quebró su historia de amor?. Lucinda Riley vorbește despre secretele de familie și despre evoluția lor în timp. Acțiunea romanului se desfășoară pe două planuri diferite, despărțite de 66 de ani, acest interval micșorându-se treptat pe măsură ce Posy, eroina principală își povestește viața.

Her sons are at odds about their mother selling their childhood home and Posey is again in the middle. ​​This is a sprawling family drama beginning with Posy in 1940's and then herself and her family 60 years later. I loved the build up of the story and meeting everyone - this author is such a great story teller.
