Olaf Olafsson Appearance

location: Coolidge Corner Brookline Booksmith, 279 Harvard St., Brookline, MA, The United States description: The author of three previous novels, including The Journey Home and Absolution, Olafsson comes to the Booksmith to share his newest. It is the 1930’s, and Alice Orsini, a wealthy British ex-pat, marries an Italian landowner and begins restoring his villa to its former glory. But as the German lines close in, and the only thing that keeps them at bay is a hidden Caravaggio, Alice’s own passions threaten to destroy everything—the villa, her love, and the refugees she comes to protect. |
