Seller: Hamelyn, Madrid, M, Spain
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: Bueno. : Enclavada en las colinas del sur de Gales se encuentra Oxmoon, la finca ancestral de la familia Godwin. En los veranos anteriores a 1914, la música fluye a través de la casa familiar mientras los Godwin, en la cima de su prosperidad, bailan en el salón de baile con sus invitados. Pero a pesar de los notables talentos del heredero aparente Robert Godwin, los destinos tienen un camino difícil y duro planeado para él y aquellos a quienes ama. Las fortunas cambian durante dos guerras mundiales, las desastrosas aventuras amorosas dejan a la familia maltratada y, finalmente, los celos amenazan con destruir Oxmoon y todo lo que simboliza. Basada en una historia real que se ha actualizado a los tiempos modernos, 'La rueda de la fortuna' es una historia atemporal de amor, odio, venganza, redención y perdón.
