Hanna's Daughters

Second-Hand

Excellent condition

Restless and unable to sleep, Anna picks up a sepia photograph of her grandmother, Hanna, as a young woman. It is like looking in a mirror and Anna sees not the tetchy old woman of family stories but a woman who might love, cry, hate, just as she does.

For the first time, Anna sees herself and her mother, Hanna's daughter, not just as a family, but as real people whose lives have rich and complex stories to tell.

Set amidst the lakes and forests of Scandinavia, against a time of tremendous change, this is the story of three generations of women, their sons and lovers, mothers and daughters.
