STAR GAZING

Book ID/图书代码： 07980007B16812

English Summary/英文概要： Blind since birth, widowed in her twenties, now lonely in her forties, Marianne Fraser lives in Edinburgh in elegant, angry anonymity with her sister, Louisa. Marianne’s passionate nature finds solace and expression in music, a love she finds she shares with Keir, a man she encounters on her doorstep one winter’s night.

Keir makes no concession to her condition. He is abrupt to the point of rudeness, yet oddly kind. But can Marianne trust her feelings for this reclusive stranger who wants to take a blind woman to his island home on Skye, to ‘show’ her the stars?

一段神秘未知的爱情历程，呈现的是与众不同的刻骨铭心！

玛丽安·菲莎（ Marianne Fraser ）与姐姐路易莎隐居在爱丁堡。路易莎是名杰出的小说家，而玛丽安的一生却非常坎坷：双目先天失明，27岁丧偶，目前40岁的她依然单身。平日，玛丽安喜欢在音乐中寻找慰藉、释放内心，直到某个冬夜在其住所附近与拥有同样爱好的陌生男子吉尔（Keir）邂逅……
其实，关心玛丽安的男子不在少数。但吉尔是最执着的一个，且与多数人出于怜悯的目的不同，吉尔想带着玛丽安去景色优美的斯凯岛一起看星星，那儿也是吉尔的故乡。
