Julia Kerninon Livres

"Née sur une petite île bretonne, Liv Maria grandit au milieu des livres. À dix-sept ans, elle est envoyée à Berlin où, le temps d'un été, elle fait une rencontre qui bouleversera le cours de son existence. Éprise de liberté, elle deviendra tour à tour une amoureuse, une aventurière, une libraire, une mère, et connaîtra mille vies. Mais laquelle est véritablement la sienne? Julia Kerninon brosse le portrait éblouissant d'une femme qui, malgré un secret inavouable, cherchera sans cesse à réécrire son histoire."--Quatrième de couverture
