Still Life

1944. Florence & London. Bombs are falling in Italy when a young British soldier spends a chance evening with a 64 year old art historian. It’s a meeting that will turn out to shape the rest of his life, and the lives of those around him. A fabulous assortment of memorable characters, a ‘family’ of eclectic personalities, and an infectious delight in all things Italian. A novel full of love, kindness and generosity of spirit and of imperfect people doing the best they can.
