O knihe
One woman has an amazing gift, another desperately needs one and the man in the middle is indifferent. Irene is content in her new marriage of convenience and her young life is going according to plan. Her husband plays the stock market, they own a convenience store and they live in an upscale neighborhood of a small town. But when tragedy strikes, Irene is unable to cope... that is, until she rediscovers knitting. In her search for solace, Irene compulsively fills the rooms of their house with more and more beautiful little sweaters. Finally, her husband decides to donate them to an international charity and one of the sweaters is stolen by a poverty-stricken single mother on the other side of the world who is wrestling with her own issues. Seeing the little sweater's extraordinary value, she repurposes it. As the two women struggle to get by, their distinct coping methods take bizarre twists. Sprinkled with magic realism and humor, the story brings to light social inequities and global environmental damage. But it's really about overcoming loss and our shared humanity.
