The Heart Remembers
The Heart Remembers: A Novel | Jan-Philipp Sendker
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
The highly anticipated final book in the internationally bestselling The Art of Hearing Heartbeats trilogy, a moving story about loves power to transcend distances and heal seemingly irreparable wounds. Twelve-year-old Ko Bo Bo lives with his uncle U Ba in Kalaw, a town in Burma. An unusually perceptive child, Bo Bo can read peoples emotions in their eyes. This acute sensitivity only makes his unconventional home life more difficult: His father comes to visit him once a year, and he can hardly remember his mother, who, for unclear reasons, keeps herself away from her son. Everything changes when Bo Bo discovers the story of his parents great love, which threatens to break down in the whirlwind of political events, and of his mothers mysterious sickness. Convinced that he can heal her and reunite their family, Bo Bo decides to set out in search of his parents. A gripping, heartwarming tale that takes the reader from Burma to New York and back, The Heart Remembers is a worthy conclusion to Jan-Philipp Sendkers beloved series.

Mehso-so

Just finished this last book in the trilogy that began with “The Art of Hearing Heartbeats,” which I loved. This one … not so much. I didn‘t buy into the premise, and the entire book felt like an unnecessary and rather lackluster attempt to continue the storyline past the point of viability.

On the plus side—here‘s a photo of the gorgeous Mountain Laurel in my yard. It‘s been a banner year for the plant in CT for some reason. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Susanita It‘s beautiful! 9mo

Just finished this beautiful final book in a trilogy. If you have not read The Art of Hearing Heartbeats yet, what are you waiting for?!

KathyWheeler I loved The Art of Hearing Heartbeats but didn‘t know it was a trilogy. 3y
ErikasMindfulShelf @KathyWheeler The last one just came out. I feel each book is it‘s own individual story as well so don‘t necessarily have to read them all. They are all great though. 3y
