The bestseller that has captivated Europe, The Taste of Apple Seeds is both a whitehot story of first love and a heartbreaking meditation on memory and loss.

When Iris inherits her grandmothers house, she fears she has also inherited her familys darkest secrets. To distract herself, she spends her days swimming at the local lake, where she rediscovers a childhood companion. But alone at night she cant resist exploring the tall black shadows of the past. In the flicker between remembrance and forgetting, Iris recalls an enigmatic grandfather who went to war and came back a different man, the night her cousin Rosmarie fell through the conservatory roof and shattered her familys lives, and a moment of love that made all the trees in the orchard bloom overnight.

"A masterpiece" - Nouvel Observateur

"From grandmother to grand-daughter this is a saga that expands over three generations... The Taste of Apple Seeds is a tale of perfect unity about three very different women whose lives are intimately connected." - Le Monde
