Wild mountains, a romantic village and a moving story: the continuation of the dramatic South Tirol saga
The Second World War is over but South Tirol is unsettled. German language and traditions are still under threat, the people want autonomy and recognition, and some are even turning to violence to achieve this. However, Franziska’s children are among those who see the great opportunities afforded by tourism, and they are driving the renovation of the farm into a hotel. In doing so, conflicts not only arise in regard to separatist aspirations but also with Uncle Leopold, who has returned and is acting as if he is the farm patriarch.
“Forgotten history, fallout from the war and a farm that suddenly finds itself in Italian South Tirol — a compelling mixture for an exciting novel.” Hanna Caspian about Das Land, von dem wir träumen
