«Una vida por descubrir» is the historical novel by Susan Meissner, published by Espasa in hardcover (464 pages, in Spanish).
In present-day Oxford, Kendra researches World War II for her thesis and interviews Isabel McFarland, a painter who survived the Blitz. The conversation uncovers a story that goes back to London in 1940, where sisters Emmy and Julia Downtree are evacuated to the countryside. Emmy then receives an offer to learn dressmaking in the capital, a dream that forces her to part from Julia and return to a city threatened by bombing.
The work belongs to the Espasa Narrativa collection and its original title is «Secrets of a Charmed Life», first published in 2015. The translation is by Milo Krmpotic.
Recommended for readers of María Dueñas, Lucinda Riley and Anne Jacobs, as well as for those seeking historical fiction set during World War II.
Susan Meissner is an American author, columnist, and the former editor of a weekly newspaper.
