LILI LA ROSIERE: THE VIRTUOUS DREAM GIRL - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

On an Atlantic crossing, set in the middle of the 20th Century, Henry, a young American romantic, meets Lili endearing, passionate, and French. Enchanted by her charm, looks, and mystery he knows only to perceive her as the girl from his fantasy world. None of the clues of Lili’s past or viewing Paris through Lili’s eyes awaken Henry to the real Lili and he resolutely holds onto his fortuitous apparition. Lili, conversely, is anxious to begin life anew and desperately wants to love and be loved. The story of their romance is told by Henry from his vantage. Over the course of almost one year they live student lives in Heidelberg. At the conclusion of the academic year, circumstances finally force Henry to confront reality. Part two of the novel is told by Lili in the form of her memoirs. Far from a dream, she is flesh and blood with deep feelings, a driving force to succeed, and a tender sensitivity to her surroundings. Utterly convincing her autobiographical narrative relates the events of her subsequent successful career and her amazing swift rise to fame. The final segments of her memoirs piece together the puzzle adding empathy and understanding to her life’s journey. Lili La Rosière is the story of the contrast of her iconic outward being and the strength and past that drive her. Throughout the book numerous twists and surprises mislead expectations and assumptions. The world has respected and acclaimed Lili, and has marveled at her mind-boggling success story. How will the published account of Lili’s life alter this?
