Happy People Read and Drink Coffee
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
After six years as a clinical psychologist, Agnès Martin-Lugand now devotes herself to writing full-time. She is also the author of Happiness Slips Through My Fingers (Entre mes mains le bonheur se faufile) and the sequel to Happy People, Don't Worry, Life Is Easy (La vie est facile, ne t'inquiète pas).
Sandra Smith is a critically acclaimed translator of French literature. She has previously worked on Suite Française and subsequent novels by Irène Némirovsky, as well as a new translation of The Outsider by Albert Camus.
"Profoundly moving and expertly told, Happy People confronts life's most nightmarish tragedy with an unblinking examination. Diane's journey to find meaning again is at once charming and heartbreaking, and I found myself pulling for her to seek out her next experience of love. The wisdom and magic in these pages will linger long after the book is closed."
#1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs
Martin-Lugand's sparse but emotionally forceful style, aided by Smith's translation from the original French, catches the sweeter moments between two people embittered by loss.”
Kirkus
A heartbreaking story of love and loss that will twist readers up in knots. . . Essential for any foreign literature or women's fiction collection.” Library Journal
The energy that Agnès Martin-Lugand is able to convey with this storm is enormous. This is one roller-coaster of a book, but I loved every moment of it. . . Anyone who has ever experienced a feeling of any kind, ever, will enjoy this novel.” San Francisco Book Review
This is a powerful story of love and loss and how life moves forward often of its own accord. Both tearful and uplifting this is an exquisite story of re-growth and renewal after tragedy.” Blogcritics.org
