Violette Toussaint is the caretaker at a cemetery in a small town in Bourgogne. Casual mourners, regular visitors, and sundry colleagues - gravediggers, groundskeepers, and a priest - visit her to warm themselves in her lodge, where laughter, companionship, and occasional tears mix with the coffee she offers them. Her life is lived to the rhythms of their funny, moving confidences. But her routine is disrupted by the arrival of the local police chief, who insists on scattering the ashes of his recently deceased mother on the gravesite of a complete stranger.

Loved this book!

This is a book that deserves a wider readership. Fresh Water for Flowers wasn’t even on my radar when it was chosen as the January book for my book club. It’s such a beautifully written story. You feel like you’re making a new friend and learning about her in pieces.
