The Chinese Woman from the Painting - Hardcover

by Florence Tholozan (Author), N. Theo (Author)

The very moment you meet someone, you already have a vague idea of what will happen in the relationship. And the emotion that arises from that initial look is equal to the importance that this person will take on in your life. What if, like Mélisende and Guillaume, you discovered a strange painting? A painting about to upset your outlook on life? In the background, behind a young Chinese woman, there would be a couple who would resemble your couple in every way. With one difference: the characters represented on the canvas would be much older. An irresistible curiosity would then take you to China, in search of the Chinese woman from the painting. A haunting contemporary novel of pure and strong emotion. A beautiful story with several voices, where the originality of each one is interwoven into a timeless continuity.

"Florence Tholozan, school teacher in Castelnau, is the author of a debut novel that brings the reader to China. A welcome literary voyage during these times when borders are closed."―Magazine de la-Ville de Castelnau le Lez"The first words that come to mind to describe the encounter with this story are 'sweet' and 'delicate'. The same sweetness and delicacy that characterizes Chinese culture, which this novel reveals better than an organized trip."―Prix des Auteurs Inconnus"A romance filled with tenderness, written with a fluid and easy-to-read pen."―MuseMania
