Synopsis
In this beguiling book, Alexander McCall Smith casts his eye over five chanced-upon photographs from the era of black-and-white photography and imagines the stories behind them. Who were those people, what were their stories, why are they smiling, what made them sad? What emerges are surprising and poignant tales of love and friendship in a variety of settings - an estate in the Highlands of Scotland, a travelling circus in Canada, an Australian gold-mining town, a village in Ireland, and the Scottish capital, Edinburgh. Some will find joy and fulfilment - others would prefer happier endings.
Each of them, though, will find love, and that is ultimately what matters.

Condition: Bueno. : En este encantador libro, Alexander McCall Smith examina cinco fotografías fortuitas de la época de la fotografía en blanco y negro e imagina las historias detrás de ellas. ¿Quiénes eran esas personas, cuáles eran sus historias, por qué sonríen, qué les entristeció? Lo que emerge son relatos sorprendentes y conmovedores de amor y amistad en diversos escenarios: una finca en las Tierras Altas de Escocia, un circo itinerante en Canadá, un pueblo minero de oro australiano, un pueblo en Irlanda y la capital escocesa, Edimburgo. Algunos encontrarán alegría y satisfacción, otros preferirían finales más felices. Sin embargo, cada uno de ellos encontrará el amor, y eso es lo que más importa.
