Produktbeschreibung

When widowed Clara meets younger Elias, neither expects love to last - then distance and illness test their fragile happiness. A life-affirming, million-copy German bestseller from the author of Tasting Sunlight. When Clara meets Elias, she isn't looking for love. Widowed and wary of being hurt again, she has built a careful life of work and quiet independence. Elias, an actor in his thirties, is trapped in a relationship that no longer feels real, more at ease slipping into a role than being himself. Yet from the moment they meet, something genuine sparks between them - something neither has felt in years. They fall into step easily, sharing secrets, laughter and the sense of being seen. But there is the age difference, the miles between their worlds, and the lingering guilt that ties Clara to her past. When a new job takes her to another part of the country, she ends the relationship before he can - certain that love like theirs cannot last. And then Elias falls ill, forcing them both to confront what truly matters. Told with warmth, gentle humour and quiet insight, Love, After All is a luminous portrait of two people finding the courage to open their hearts again - proof that love, at any age, can still take us by surprise. _______ Praise for Ewald Arenz: 'Ewald Arenz writes with gentle joy' Iona Gray 'A tender and profound coming-of-age story that's also a gripping page-turner.
