Blessed Are the Cracked, for They Let In the Light

Publisher Récamier
Who hasn’t been dismayed by how some things so hard for us seem so natural and easy for others? Some fears are socially acceptable. Others, more irrational or subjective, we try to hide for fear of being judged, mocked, or rejected. Giordano, with over 7 million French readers, tries to reassure readers that any fear can be brought into the light.

Quirky, creative Henriette is a talented young freelance interior designer. No one suspects that behind her façade lurks great anxiety and fragility. She tries to hide her vulnerability, avoiding situations beyond her comfort zone, which leaves her exhausted and erodes her self-esteem. If only she could acknowledge and accept her fears! Then she would find that they are also the source of her strength and uniqueness. After all, everyone is afraid... but not of the same things! One day, a new project has her collaborating with an ambitious, charismatic landscape architect who can’t stand her. As she gets to know the design team, a subtle drama begins. Who is hiding what? Will the masks come off? And behind the cracks, will the light shine through to illuminate the best in each of them?
