A world of their own A 1957 love affair

About A world of their own A 1957 love affair

Preface In a small Côte d'Azur village with a hotel, a beach and fishermen, a blind boy and Manon, the daughter of a gruff baker, hang out on the beach daily with the village children, from the age when they were toddlers. And yet they live still in a world of their own. Timo, although deprived of eyesight, is gifted with insight. He can tell intricate stories that captivate children as well as adults. That's how in the summer of 1957 they meet Sofie, a slowly dying girl of their age. He discovers what she lacks and shares with her his daily breakfast of fried "fruits de mer" he gets from the fishermen. Sofie recovers. Timo "sees" with his hands and one day Manon permits him to "see" her ripening body. So does Sofie. They taste love and promise each other to marry the three of them. There is no proof this particular story did ever happen, but no proof either it didn't. There are famous lovers in literature and art, like Romeo and Juliet. So why should this story be different? Purity has it own ways to stand out in the Akasha Chronicles and to reach the "fantasy" of writers who are acquainted with this purity and long for it. Because longing is a strong magnet.
