Emilia - Christa Polkinhorn - Bog

The O'Reilly household is in trouble. With her two older children, Laura and Tonio, grown and getting ready to fly the coop, Karla finds out she is pregnant again. Instead of furthering her painting career, she has to raise another child. Andreas looks forward to being a father once more but the little bundle of joy, Emilia, instead of enhancing the relationship to his wife intensifies the tension that has been building between them. More challenges wait in the wings: Andreas catches his son in a compromising position with another man and Arturo, Karla's Peruvian father, has a heart attack. During Karla's stay in Peru where she takes care of Arturo, Andreas gets a little too cozy with a young woman by the name of Susanna. Only when he almost loses Emilia does he come to his senses and embarks on a journey to try to keep his family together. EMILIA deals with the struggle of a family of artists, who try to keep the flame of love and creativity alive through turbulent times. It takes place in Switzerland, France, and Peru.
