Sarah Shoemaker Bücher
Sarah Shoemaker absolvierte einen langen und verschlungenen Weg, um eine veröffentlichte Schriftstellerin zu werden, der Berufe wie Lehrerin, Hausfrau und Bibliothekarin umfasste. Sie verfasst fesselnde Erzählungen, die sich mit der Komplexität von Charakteren und Beziehungen befassen und oft das Innenleben von Figuren aus der klassischen Literatur erforschen. Shoemakers Werk zeichnet sich durch seine aufschlussreiche Untersuchung von Motivationen und seine Fähigkeit aus, neue Perspektiven auf beliebte Charaktere zu bieten. Ihr Schreiben lädt die Leser ein, Individuen tiefer zu verstehen und verkörpert den Geist, die Geschichten zu erschaffen, die wir uns wünschen zu lesen.
"It is 1908 and Smyrna is the most cosmopolitan city on the Mediterranean Sea. Though long a part of the Ottoman Empire, Smyrna has always been Greek, and its citizens honor the traditions of previous generations. The Demirigis and Melopoulos families are no different, and now Liana Demirigis will wed the only Melopoulos son, Vassili--a marriage arranged by her parents. After the wedding, Liana and Vassili build an idyllic life for themselves and their children outside of the city, safe from rising political tensions roiling the region and the world. But less than a decade later, the growing divisions between the Greeks and Turks threaten to boil over. When each country chooses a different side with the outbreak of the Great War, a hunger to reclaim Izmir consumes Greece. Suddenly Liana and her family, like thousands of others like them, are thrust into danger ... and many will not survive"-- Provided by publisher
