About This Book

In this short story from Alexander McCall Smith's Pianos and Flowers, inspired by a photograph from the Times of London archive, a young woman finds unexpected love while perusing Egyptian antiquities. With his indomitable charm, Alexander McCall Smith takes us behind the lens to explore the hidden life behind this photograph—a love lost and then found again—and in so doing reveals the humanity in us all.
