Nearly four hundred years later, when George Sand, her two children, and her lover Frederic Chopin arrive in the village, Blanca is still there: a spirited, funny, righteous ghost, she’s been hanging around the monastery since her accidental death, spying on the monks and the townspeople and keeping track of her descendants.īlanca is enchanted the moment she sees George, and the magical novel unfolds as a story of deeply felt, unrequited longing-a teenage ghost pining for a woman who can’t see her and doesn’t know she exists. In 1473, fourteen-year-old Blanca dies in a hilltop monastery in Mallorca. A playful and daring tale about a teenage ghost who falls in love with the writer George Sands.
