书籍简介

风趣而温柔……帕特里克·瑞安一直是我喜欢的作家之一。” 安·帕切特 “我全心全意地爱着这部小说……充满智慧，却又令人心碎。” 安·纳波利塔诺 在俄亥俄州的小镇博诺米，卡尔·詹金斯和玛格丽特·索尔特在盟军在欧洲取得胜利后的喜悦中，偷偷地产生了激情。卡尔的妻子贝基拥有天赋：她是一位能够召唤死者的预言家，帮助家人与失去的亲人建立联系。

玛格丽特的丈夫菲利克斯在一艘海军货船上服役；她很快就会得知，他可能在菲律宾海的一次黎明前袭击中丧生。但在小镇上，没有什么是可以永远埋葬的，这次邂逅的影响将波及两个家庭的下一代，迫使他们重新审视自己的身份——以及未来将会怎样。 《七叶树》充满同情、幽默和魅力，是一幅令人难忘的社区的耀眼肖像：充满希望和恐惧、爱和失去，重要的是对联系的不屈不挠的渴望。

Funny and tender ... Patrick Ryan has long been one of my favourite writers’ ANN PATCHETT ‘I love this novel with my entire heart … Wise and heartbreaking’ ANN NAPOLITANOIn the small Ohio town of Bonhomie, Cal Jenkins and Margaret Salt come together in a stolen moment of passion, sparked in the exuberant aftermath of the Allied victory in Europe. Cal’s wife, Becky, has a spiritual gift: she is a seer who can conjure the dead, helping families connect with those whom they’ve lost.

Margaret’s husband, Felix, is serving on a Navy cargo ship; she will soon learn that he may have perished in a predawn attack in the Philippine Sea. But in a small town, nothing stays buried forever, and the consequences of that encounter will ripple through the next generation of both families, compelling them to re-examine who they thought they were – and what the future might hold. Full of compassion, humour and charm, Buckeye is a dazzling portrait of an unforgettable community: of hopes and fears, loves and losses, and above all an indomitable longing for connection.
