Casilda Faertes and to her mother, another Miriam, born in Budapest
and raised in Nice?
Spanning a thousand years and bringing together the stories of three
generations of women in North-east England, Budapest and Spain, For
Hope is Always Born, follows on from This is the End of the
Story and A Remedy for All Things to ask huge questions
about identity and the nature of love and loss.
