Five years later, Anna packed her bags and walked out on  Armand, taking the typewriter and their children. The two never saw or  spoke to each other again.\u003cbr\u003e This is the deeply involving account of Miranda's journey to find out  what happened. To discover the roots of this embittered and entrenched  silence, Miranda abandons her plans for the future and moves to the old  stone house, now a crumbling ruin, where she immerses herself in letters  and archival materials, slowly teasing stories out of her reticent, and  declining, grandparents. Along the way she finds herself learning how  not only to survive, but to thrive-making a home in the village and  falling in love.\u003cbr\u003e With warmth, humour, and rich, evocative detail, \u003ci\u003eA Fifty-Year Silence\u003c\/i\u003e is a heartbreaking, uplifting love story spanning two continents and three generations.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48150346563742,"sku":"UBD-9781922182586","price":32.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781922182586.jpg?v=1786964475","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781922182586","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
