Отрывок из книги
Diana Finley was an ‘army child’, the youngest child of her British officer father and Jewish Viennese mother, who met in Palestine during World War 2. Diana was born in Germany, where her father was posted after the war. The family moved to London during the Sixties. At eighteen, Diana spent nearly a year living with nomadic people in a remote part of Afghanistan – a life-changing experience.
Back in England, Diana got a job for Macdonald Educational, writing and editing information books for children. On their honeymoon, she and her husband found a small house high in the hills of Northumberland, and decided to move their lives there from London. The north east of England has been their home ever since.

‘Ja, poor Jakob. That was a hard time, a bad time. Then later I met my second husband, Sam. Sam was an Englishman. An Englishman through and through.’ Anna smiles and then sighs deeply. She feels Eve tapping her arm. Her eyes settle back on Simon.
