Sobre IBD

There is something very odd about Stella’s neighbour. Rose leads a peculiar, Amish-like existence, refusing to have electricity in her Paris apartment. She teaches piano during the day, and in the evenings she makes wonderful quilts by candlelight. Birds love Rose. They come to her window, they follow her in the street - but other neighbours are suspicious, and she has enemies. Stella is drawn to her. The more she gets to know her, the more mysterious she becomes. Rose seems to be at the centre of some very disturbing events.Candlepower...'Weaves a magic spell'...is 'so original that it takes my breath away'.
