Beschreibung

<b>'Beautiful and heartbreaking ... I absolutely loved it'</b> Monica Ali, <i>Sunday Times</i> Bestselling author of <i>Love Marriage</i> '<b>The whole, biographically inspired family drama tells of the greatest feelings we have: Love, anger, envy and grief</b>' <i>Meike Schnitzler, Brigitte</i> Maria and Josef live with their children in a valley in westernmost Austria. When the First World War breaks out and Josef is drafted into the army, Maria is left to provide for her family alone. Every day is a struggle against starvation, the harsh alpine climate and the hostile nearby villagers who see Maria as little more than a beautiful temptress out for the men left behind. But when a red-haired stranger arrives in the village, Maria feels happiness seep back into her life and she faces a choice whose consequences will affect the lives of her family for generations to come. Based on the internationally bestselling and award-winning Austrian novelist Monika Helfer's own family history, <i>Last House Before the Mountain</i> is a propulsive, haunting, multi-layered saga about love, family, and the hidden wages of war.
