Second chances abound in this story featuring Marianne, a German woman caught up in a loveless marriage for forty one years. On a tour in France, she decides to end it all. Her attempt at suicide is thwarted and she escapes to Brittany. There in a picturesque village along the sea she encounters a number of people who are trapped in their past or their fear of taking chances. She begins life anew and discovers freedom and joy. Her influence on those in the village helps them to take risks and to begin life anew as well. There is a lot of mystical features in the novel and some sexual content which may be offensive to some. It is a light summer read.I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
