About the book: 2024 / “Castle on the Sand” (1957) The life of William More, a school history teacher in a small sleepy town, is not much different from the life of his neighbors: stable work, family, two children. But everything changes when the bright and witty artist Rain Carter comes to the city... Love for a young woman destroys William’s usual way of life like a sand castle. But what, in fact, is more terrible - leaving your family or not trying to change a life in which there is no place for love and feeling? “The Bell” (1958) An ancient legend says: the bell of the Imbert convent fell from the bell tower when a young nun broke her vow by meeting secretly with your lover. Centuries have passed, and there is still no bell in the abbey... Just as there is no peace for the restless souls of the inhabitants of the community located nearby on the Imber Court estate. A community based on religious principles and uniting people who want to live a simple and righteous life. And when two new guests appear in Imber Court - the energetic and spontaneous Dora Greenfield and the naive eighteen-year-old boy Toby - the relationship between all the characters begins to tie into a tight ball, which will be very difficult to untangle…
