Daughters of Castle Deverill - Deverill Chronicles - Santa

The Last Secret of the Deverills is the third and last novel in Santa Montefiore's Deverill trilogy. Spanning the course of at least 100 years we follow the Deverill family and all there chaotic wrong doings during England and Ireland's political disputes. We follow young Kitty from an infant all the way up to a mature lady. Despite all the atrocious life choices this family make, I swiftly fell in love with each and every character making this a very engaging read. Heerlijk om terug haar verhaal te lezen, hoe mooi ze de dingen omschrijft gaande van de natuur, flora en fauna, tot de diepste gevoelens van de personages. Doordat ze dit zo vakkundig aan de dag legt voel je je verbonden met alle personages; hun lief en leed, hun geheimen en hun angsten. Je wordt door haar prachtige schrijfstijl ondergedompeld en je voelt als het ware de liefde die allen hebben voor hun teerbeminde Ierland. Alle personages worden als een magneet terug getrokken naar Ballinakelly waar ze hun jeugdjaren hebben doorgebracht. Het kasteel speelt een belangrijke rol in hun levens. Castle Deverill, cherished home to the Deverill family in the west of Ireland for hundreds of years, has burned to the ground. But young and flighty Celia Deverill is determined to restore the sad ruin to its former glory. Celia married well and has the wealth to keep it in the family... and she cannot bear to see her beloved home stand neglected. Most of Montefiore’s novels touching, magical and remarkable as they are, are a combination of real life experiences/stories and some fiction. The stories, plots, and characters that she writes about from the first novel Meet Me Under Ombu Tree and the other novels that followed are a sum of her experiences. Most of the characters in the novels have to deal with many painful experiences that the author asserts are important as a nostalgic way of reliving the past and making sense of the present. Nonetheless, the books are written to touch people on a spiritual and emotional level even as they entertain. While her very first novel was set in Argentina, her preceding novels have been in Chile, France, and Italy, countries that tend to have the same herb scented, balmy, and warm breezes just like Argentina. She has also done one of her novels in the wild beaches of Connemara, Ireland for its melancholy, gothic, and haunting tone that were missing in the other novels. Sometimes second books can stand alone–this one, however, cannot. And there is no indication on the cover that this is part of a trilogy, so I have a feeling a lot of readers are going to end up confused like I was. Once I got into the book and kind of figured out what was going on, it was fine. The story started moving, and the pieces started making sense together–I still felt like I was playing catch up the whole time, though.Tenemos de nuevo a Celia , que en esta segunda entrega se puede apreciar con mucho mas detenimiento, siendo muy dichosa junto a su marido, decide reconstruir el castillo de Deverill, después de que este fuera puesto a la venta, ya que posee muchos recursos económicos para su plan, pone todo su empeño para su obra sea recordada y admirada por todos.

One of our personal favourites and bestselling authors, sweeping stories of love and families spanning continents and decades' * The Times *This saga is beautifully written. I couldn’t stop listening to it and will miss the wonderful Irish voices. El inicio de La Segunda Guerra mundial aderezara la historia, trayendo consigo momentos de tristeza y tensión . I have a tendresse for sweeping and epic romantic sagas set around huge houses and aristocratic families and Santa Montefiore hits the spot for me like few other writers... Lush, vivid storytelling ’ Sarra Manning It is 1925 and the war is long over. But much has been lost and life will never truly be the same again. Food and drinks are mentioned here and there. I wanted to represent both social economic divisions so I brought a Pomegranate Martini which would appeal to the Deverill family and Scones with cream and jam for the Doyle and O'Leary families.
