Once a year, on August 16, Ana Magdalena Bach takes a ferry to spend a night on the island where her mother is buried. Indifferent to the splendor of the Caribbean, she simply places a bouquet of gladioli on the grave before returning to her husband. But in the summer of her forty-sixth year, an affair with a stranger will precipitate her fate: Ana Magdalena discovers infidelity and physical passion at the same time as romantic disappointment. As if caught in an erotic spiral, she spends each pilgrimage to the island in the arms of a new lover. Although she understands the origin of her mother's attachment to this lagoon populated by blue herons, will Ana Magdalena be able to escape its spell?
Une fois par an, le 16 août, Ana Magdalena Bach prend un ferry pour passer une nuit sur l’île où est enterrée sa mère. Indifférente à la splendeur des Caraïbes, elle se contente de déposer un bouquet de glaïeuls sur la tombe avant de retrouver son mari. Mais, l’été de ses quarante-six ans, une aventure avec un inconnu va précipiter son destin : Ana Magdalena découvre l’infidélité et la passion des corps en même temps que le dépit amoureux. Comme prise dans une spirale érotique, elle vit chaque pèlerinage sur l’île dans les bras d’un nouvel amant. Si elle comprend l’origine de l’attachement de sa mère à cette lagune peuplée de hérons bleus, Ana Magdalena pourra-t-elle cependant échapper à son sortilège ?

FAQ
Here are the answers to the most common questions I get asked, please review them and reach out to me if you need more info on something, I love to help you pick the right book, just for you!
Are the books New?
Yes, all the books that I sell during my bookfairs or online on my e-boutique are brand new.. You will be the very first to flip all the pages and enjoy the feeling of holding your own book in your hand.
What defines the prices of the books?
As a passionate small business owner, my goal is to offer a high level of quality imported from France at the best price. I understand that some people may be surprised by the difference of price between French and American books. In France, books are more expensive as authors and illustrators get larger copyright compensations. Also, imports cost quite a bit if you take into account the price of transport as well as the weight of what is being transported. I appreciate your constant support, when you choose sustainable small businesses over large corporations.
Do you have a shop?
My main way of meeting you is book fairs, festivals and private sales. Ordering online through my e-boutique is the best way to support French Authors and Small Minority Owned business like mine. I also have a physical location present in Orange County accessible via appointment only. Please contact me through text to get more information!
