SALES POINTS- * Follow your heart has now sold over 5 million copies worldwide and is one of the most successful books of all time. * Follow your heart is already becoming a backlist seller in Minerva. * We have bought Tamaro's lastest novel, Soul of the World. Commitment to this author is very high. * Jacket treatment ties in with Follow Your Heart. THE BOOK- The stories in For Solo Voice, Susanna Tamaro's first book, explore the historical and emotional traumas which lie beneath consciousness and threaten to erupt into everyday life. She exposes with analytical clarity, spectres of our past that abide in us as individuals and as a society, disfiguring our humanity.
The reasons for its success are immediately obvious. It has enormous charm...narrated with a beguiling simplicity and intimacy, both tender and evocative. * Gladgow Herald *
Extremely moving...This is a novel that will sweep you off your feet should you be lucky enough to read it. * Books *
