Synopsis

Eight years have passed since Stella last saw Ivo, but when he returns, the reunion of their unconventional family will change the course of her ordinary life. As children, Stella and Ivo grew close as their parents embarked on an affair that would shatter both families. Later, as teenagers, their own relationship would be the cause of further scandal. Now, as adults, they set out on an odyssey to uncover the truth about another family’s past—and to understand their own. My Soul Twin is an intense love story about forbidden desire, the ties that bind us, and whether we can ever truly forget what we leave behind.

300 gripping pages of self-destructive middle-class navel gazing. Haratischvili captured the histrionics of the Brontë classic perfectly. The pathos, the inner turmoil, the burning-your-happy-life-down-to-fuck-your-adopted-brother, oy! My full review of My Soul Twin is up now on Keeping Up With The......more

Goodreads review by Denisa on June 24, 2022

Aké je to milovať niekoho tajne? Aké je to milovať niekoho a nemôcť s ním byť? Aké je to milovať a trpieť pri tom - fyzicky, vnútorne, celou bytosťou? Gruzínska autorka Nino Haratischwili sa na to snaží odpovedať vo svojom románe. Dve jeho hlavné postavy tieto otázky žijú každý deň. "Myslela som na sv......more

Whatever rating for this book, I will read everything this author writes. Book was good, however I think I didn't really understand the big twist, what was it about....
