Thomas Leslie Knihy
Leslie Thomas je najviac známy svojim medzinárodným bestsellerom o britských vojakoch v Malajsku. Jeho tvorba často čerpá z osobných skúseností, vrátane raného života v sirotinci, ktorý preskúmal vo svojom prvom románe. Thomasove dielo zachytáva zážitky obyčajných ľudí vrhaných do mimoriadnych okolností, často so zmesou humoru a pátosu. Jeho rozprávanie rezonuje u čitateľov vďaka živej prezentácii ľudskej odolnosti a vplyvu konfliktov.

The new tale of love and life, rich with humour and pathos, from our best loved storyteller. From the prison cell where Chloe Smith, 43, is awaiting trial for the merciful murder of the only man who ever loved her with honesty, she recalls the men in her life who lied to her. She remembers her adored father, who drank too much; the loss of her virginity at Stonehenge to a schoolboy, her marriage to petty crook Zane Tomkins, the Isle of Wight ferryman who said he was a lonely deep sea sailor, the young priest who said he loved her but left to establish a church for men, or the lighthouse keeper who shouted in his sleep-all these men, and many others, have let Chloe down. Chloe`s Song is the story of one woman`s quest to get what every woman wants-a man who tells the truth.
