"Marvellous Ways is eighty-nine years old and has lived alone in a remote Cornish creek for nearly all her life. Lately she's taken to spending her days sitting on a mooring stone by the river with a telescope. She's waiting for something - she's not sure what, but she'll know it when she sees it. Drake is a young soldier left reeling by the Second World War. When his promise to fulfil a dying man's last wish sees him wash up in Marvellous' creek, broken in body and spirit, the old woman comes to his aid. A Year of Marvellous Ways is a glorious, life-affirming story about the magic in everyday life and the pull of the sea, the healing powers of storytelling and sloe gin, love and death and how we carry on when grief comes snapping at our heels." --Provided by the publisher Adult Lauron, Rodello General Education Fiction English Great Britain Fiction History Historical fiction ddc BK adryann[new] 05/26/2025 13616 13616 0 0 ddc 0 0 UCBL_MAIN UCBL_MAIN FIC 2025-05-26 Big Bad Wolf 0 F W73y 2015 3UCBL000028901 2025-05-26 2025-05-26 FIC
