The Photograph

If you loved The Letter by Kathryn Hughes and The Hourglass by Tracy Rees you’ll be swept away by this stunning summer story.

Italy, 1958: Rachael is a young widow with a small child. After a lifetime of running for survival, of not knowing who to trust and where to call home, she finds herself in a place of safety. On a sun-drenched Italian island for one carefree summer the troubles of her past fade away, and she falls in love. But will Rachael’s new-found happiness bring her further heartache?

England, 2017: Sophie has a handsome husband, a gorgeous house in the English countryside, and a successful career as an anthropologist. But the one thing she longs for is a baby of her own. As she struggles to conceive, cracks begin to appear in her marriage. So Sophie throws herself into her work and tries to seek comfort in childhood memories of her beloved grandmother Rachael.

One afternoon, Sophie finds a forgotten letter and an exquisite silk bracelet hidden in Rachael’s old writing desk. Intrigued, she begins to unravel the extraordinary story of her grandmother’s past - and a secret that has the power to change everything....

The Photograph is an utterly beautiful and compelling story of love, loss, and a family secret spanning generations.

Very enjoyable!

That feeling you get after finishing a very good book! I just had to sigh with content at the last chapter.

Overall a good story

Story is good, no big surprises or mysteries but kept me engaged. Narrator overall did a good job except when switching to American characters. Her American accent is pretty annoying and painful to listen to but luckily they are all not a relatively minor part of the story.

LOVED this story! Exciting & warm

This was a fabulous story. It has drama, love, reality, loss & everything in life. It was easy to follow. The narrator did an excellent job of dialects & accents. I loved all the personalities. The author transitioned so easily from old to current & tied it in so well. This was one of my favorites. You’ll love it.

A Sweet Saga

The Photograph is a story told over many decades with believable characters and and scenes elaborately described. I very much enjoyed the story of this family and it’s discretely kept secret.

Loved it !
