Acerca de este título
Even the longest marriages have their secrets....
Jack Chalmers is a man of few words, married to a woman of many. He and Bet have been together for 70 years - almost a lifetime - and happily so, for the most part.
All Jack and Bet want is to enjoy the time they have left together, in the flat they have tried to make their home. Their son Tommy has other ideas: he wants them to live somewhere with round-the-clock care, hot meals, activities. Bet thinks they can manage just fine.
When they strike up an unlikely friendship with Marinela, a young Romanian woman, Bet thinks she has found the perfect solution - one that could change Marinela's life as well as theirs. But this means revisiting an old love affair and confronting a long-buried secret she has kept hidden from everyone, even Jack, for many years.
Tender, moving and beautifully told, Sarah Butler's Jack and Bet is an unforgettable novel about love and loss, the joys and regrets of a long marriage and the struggle to find a place to call home.
