À propos de cet audio

 A moving and heart-rending debut about a grieving woman who moves to a charming small town and finds healing, friendship and love, from multi-million-copy bestselling Australian poet Courtney Peppernell.

Wren Paisley is living her dream: she’s a successful author and poet, she adores the New York brownstone she calls home and she’s about to marry the love of her life. But everything changes when her fiancée, Lucy, dies in a tragic car crash that leaves a young bystander paralysed. Unable to escape the media frenzy, Wren goes on a road trip, winding up in the charming small town of Everston, Colorado.

It feels fortuitous when she learns that the local library hosts a grief support group that reads, of all things, poetry. Hesitantly, she joins, and slowly begins to build community with the other members, including: Henry, a librarian mourning the loss of his brother; Emerson, a young woman recovering from a life-altering car accident; and Olivia, a complicated reporter who gives Wren butterflies. Finally, she can breathe again, and maybe even love again.

But how long can Wren keep her old life in the rear-view? Will she be able to build a new life in Everston, or will it all come crashing down when old truths come to light? Contemporaine Fiction de genre Romantisme Sincère Émouvant

Grab the tissue box and get ready to feel all the feels.’ (Amy Matthews, author of Someone Else’s Bucket List)

The Last Poem is a heartfelt, raw, and deeply moving story of finding strength, healing, and hope in unexpected places … Whatever you do, do not miss this one.’ (Becka Mack, author of Consider Me)
‘This might be Peppernell’s first literary novel, but her skill as a poet is evident in her poised, lyrical writing, which often floats off the page. If you’re looking for a charming read with a side of ­poetry, pick up The Last Poem and shed a tear or two in the ­company of its endearing characters.’
'The Last Poem is a very well-written novel which explores the shape, texture and meaning of grief. Peppernell's characters are rich and their stories engaging ... This is the sort of novel you want to share with the people you love.'
