Produktbeschreibung

What is Cecil and Noreen's secret? How is a love affair sustained over a lifetime?.

Cecil Connolly is a man of few words. Each year, in the days leading up to his wedding anniversary, as he lies in bed in his Catholic nursing home, he takes his old cash-box from the bedside cabinet and removes his most precious possessions, the letters his wife wrote to him in the months leading up to their marriage fifty-nine years ago. And each morning, when she comes to visit her husband, Noreen too looks back on their shared life - their courtship, their wedding, their friends and family, the journeys they made together - and realises that her marriage, and her love for Cecil, is still evolving day by day.

Cecil & Noreen is a story about ordinary people made extraordinary by their love for one another. Compassionate, funny and moving, it is a poignant, subtle and lyrical study of faith, family, and a couple's lifelong romance.
