Über diesen Titel
Prayer and ingenuity have kept the remote English convent of St Winifreda in the Fen going for centuries, but now the roof leaks, the bell tower is crumbling, and rats have moved in. The Bishop’s accountant wants to send the retired sisters to a home, disperse the working nuns, pull down the buildings, and sell the land off as a car park. But he has reckoned without the unstoppable force that is Reverend Mother Elizabeth.
With her team of ex-offenders, migrant workers, and passing strangers, she plans not just to save, but also to renew, restore, and revivify the sisterhood. The gentle, witty letters of Sister Boniface, who, as newly-appointed convent shopkeeper, has a big role to play in this challenge, chart a year of the sisters’ struggle as they get to grips with the harsh realities of the 21st century armed mainly with kindness and home baked biscuits.
©2014 Frances Johnstone (P)2020 Frances JohnstoneAt first I was a little confused by the letters (as I simply hadn't read the cover 😄) but after the 3rd letter they had me hooked. Its a really nice way to summarize a year with just the peaks. I also quite liked the characters and the whole story had an upbeat atmosphere which made me feel good.
The narrator did a great job, one new instantly who was speaking and she even managed to read male characters convincingly.
Overall, a definite recommendation for everyone who wants to listen to a heartfelt and nicely written story with positive vibes throughout 😊
Super sweet
