En savoir plus sur le livre

In a castle at the foot of the Carpathian Mountains, an old aristocrat waits to greet a friend he has not seen for forty-one years. In the course of one night, the two men will fight a duel of words, of stories, of accusations and evasions. They were the closest of friends in their youth. Then a murky, traumatic event---something to do with thwarted intentions, and a gun---led to their sudden separation. They have spent the intervening years anticipating this moment, waiting for the devastating truth to be revealed. Embers is an extraordinary story of love and friendship, of fidelity, pride and betrayal. Gripping and unforgettable, it is a masterpiece.
