A Single Rose

English

By (author): Muriel Barbery

Translated by: Alison Anderson

Shortlisted for the Prix Jean Giono, the temples and teahouses of Kyoto are the scene of a Frenchwoman's emotional awakening in this life-affirming novel by international bestseller Muriel Barbery Rose has just turned forty when she is unexpectedly summoned to Japan for the reading of her father Haru's will, who seemingly abandoned her when she was a baby. Leaving behind her life as a botanist in Paris, Rose travels to Kyoto and is led around its enchanting tea houses, temples and zen gardens by Paul, Haru's former assistant. Initially a reluctant tourist, Rose gradually comes to discover her father's legacy through the itinerary he set for her, finding gifts greater than she had ever imagined and connecting with gentle widower Paul. This stunning novel from international bestseller Muriel Barbery is a mesmerising story of second chances, of beauty born out of grief and roses grown from ashes. See more
