Restless and unable to sleep, she wanders through her parents' house, revisiting the scenes of her childhood. In a cupboard drawer, folded and pushed away from sight, she finds a sepia photograph of her grandmother, Hanna, whoM she remembers as old and forbidding, a silent stranger enveloped in a huge pleated black dress. Now, looking at the features Anna recognises as her own, she realises she is looking at a different woman from the one of her memory. Set against the majestic isolation of the Scandinavian lakes and mountains, this is more than a story of three Swedish women. It is a moving testament of a time forgotten and an epic romance in every sense of the word. 1518661 1994 Hanna's Daughters total:680|5:98|4:252|3:231|2:84|1:15| 680 2374 944 129 5 1 false false Fri Feb 27 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Mar 04 13:23:52 -0800 2009 Wed Mar 04 13:24:22 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 1 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 02 13:35:12 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 11 13:38:44 -0800 2008
