The taste of apple seeds

Iris, the narrator, a librarian at the University of Fribourg , returns to the village whereBertha , his grandmother
just leave him her house. There she meets his family for burial, his mother, his aunts, they renew old acquaintances, and especially it is suitable re home and crash of the garden and all his own childhood memories .... I loved the poetry that emerges from the writing of Katharina Haguena. It can be intimately touched by this house every page makes you think about your own family home. Beyond the history of this young girl, the strength of this book is there .. How a house becomes a part of us. Every place, every corner, has a smell or atmosphere of our memories .... A nostalgic book but of great beauty ...
