Kniha - autor Holly Ringlandová, 400 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Podmanivý román o utajovaných príbehoch, ktoré nás prenasledujú, a o príbehoch, ktoré nám pomáhajú v ťažkostiach. Deväťročná Alice Hartová vyrastá v odľahlom dome medzi poľami cukrovej trstiny a morom. Pred zlovestnými náladami otca ju chránia matkine kvety a ich tajné významy. Keď jej život navždy poznačí tragédia, odíde bývať k starej mame na kvetinovú farmu, kde nachádzajú útočisko ženy so zlomeným srdcom. Naučí sa jazyk pôvodných austrálskych kvetov, aby nimi mohla vyjadriť všetko, na čo nestačia slová. Po niekoľkých rokoch, po nečakanej zrade, po odhalení zdrvujúceho rodinného tajomstva a po ukončení vzťahu s mužom, ktorý nie je taký, aký sa na prvý pohľad zdá, si uvedomí, že na rozpovedanie niektorých príbehov kvety nestačia. Ak chce dosiahnuť vytúženú slobodu, musí nájsť odvahu úprimne sa pozrieť na najsilnejší príbeh, ktorý pozná. Na príbeh svojho života. (alza.cz)
