À propos de cet audio

Violette Toussaint is the caretaker at a cemetery in a small town in Bourgogne. Casual mourners, regular visitors, and sundry colleagues - gravediggers, groundskeepers, and a priest - visit her to warm themselves in her lodge, where laughter, companionship, and occasional tears mix with the coffee she offers them. Her life is lived to the rhythms of their funny, moving confidences.

But her routine is disrupted by the arrival of the local police chief, who insists on scattering the ashes of his recently deceased mother on the gravesite of a complete stranger. Soon it becomes clear that his inexplicable gesture is intertwined with Violette’s own difficult past.

With Fresh Water for Flowers, Valérie Perrin has given listeners an intimately told story that tugs on the heartstrings about a woman who believes obstinately in happiness, despite it all. A number-one best seller in France, it is a heartwarming and tender story that will stay with listeners long after they finish it.

I loved the book, but am very disappointed by the reader. It seems no one bothered going through the pronunciation of French names with her so she thoroughly butchered them throughout the book. In her reading, "Toussaint" rhymed with the English pronunciation of "Croissant", sigh. A very frustrating experience.

Great book, poor listening experience

Interesting story, characters and setting; Francophone narrator who could do voices would have added greatly to the listeners’ enjoyment.

Poor narration spoiled a good story

There was very interesting characters in this book. I thoroughly enjoyed listening. The reader’s French pronunciation was lacking.

Great Story

I loved the story! It was sad and yet beautiful! The author pivoted along the timeline keeping me engaged and constantly trying to figure the story! The simple style of writing and the imagery was well done!

Beautifully written

I enjoyed the story... not terribly riveting but was an easy read. The narration wasn't great - when readers try to 'change voices' it can be very distracting as was the case here for me.

Story was good
