Summary:
The library at Mont Saint-Michel was once known as the City of Books. It is there, within the grey walls of its monastery, in the fifteenth century, that a portrait painter grieving the sudden death of the woman he loved finds refuge. And it's there, between the sea and the sky, five centuries later, that a novelist tries to find her words again. They meet in the pages of a notebook left out in the rain.
