Sinopsis

Condición del ejemplar: Good. In the summer of 1965, Robert Kincaid, a world-traveling photographer on assignment for National Geographic, drives into Madison County, Iowa, to photograph its covered bridges. Lost on a dusty back road, he stops at a farmhouse to ask for directions. Francesca Johnson, an Italian-born war bride, is alone at home that week while her husband and children are away at the state fair. She has made a quiet, dutiful life on the farm, but a part of her has long gone unexpressed. When she offers to show Robert the way to Roseman Bridge, neither of them can foresee the four days that follow, days that will change them both forever and that each will carry for the rest of their lives. Told with tenderness and restraint, framed by the discovery of Francesca’s letters and journals by her grown children years later, Robert James Waller’s novel is a meditation on love, longing, loyalty and the choices that define a life. A worldwide phenomenon that topped bestseller lists and inspired the acclaimed film starring Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep, The Bridges of Madison County remains one of the most beloved love stories of our time.
