Description

**A compelling novel about friendship, identity and love.**
One winter evening, Elias, a young artist, watches a woman move into his apartment building. After closing her door, however, she is not seen again. A misdirected letter finally gives Elias the opportunity to make contact. But inside her dark apartment, Elisabeth refuses to respond to his knock. Her only company is the Woman in Green, an unbidden vision from her childhood dreams.
Elias, meanwhile, is not to be deterred and draws his friend Otto, an elderly widower, into his attempts to entice Elisabeth into the world. When an accident finally opens her door, a shared love of books sparks a friendship between the three lonely neighbours.
As spring segues into summer, their lives become intertwined and their past stories are revealed.
