Книга: The Return Journey (Binchy Maeve); Orion, 2010

A pair of star-crossed travellers pick up each other’s bags, and then learn that when you unlock a stranger’s suitcase, you enter a stranger’s life. An unspoken office passion meets the acid test on a business trip. A man and a woman’s mutual disdain at first sight shows how deceptive appearances can be. And an insecure wife clings to the illusion of order, only to discover chaos at the hands of a house-sitter who opens the wrong doors.

These and many more poignant, often humorous, unforgettable slices of life show why Maeve Binchy is one of the world’s favourite storytellers.
