Boekbeschrijving
Vrienden voor het leven is het verhaal van drie vriendinnen die, op weg naar volwassenheid, verwikkeld raken in een zonderlinge driehoeksverhouding. Benny en Eve, boezemvriendinnen uit het Ierse dorpje Knockglen, gaan in Dublin studeren, waar ze vriendschap sluiten met de aantrekkelijke en ambitieuze Nan. Het opwindende studentenleven brengt hen niet alleen geluk maar ook verdriet. Op onnavolgbare wijze, met sterke dialogen en een groot vermogen om menselijke gevoelens herkenbaar neer te zetten weet Maeve Binchy geluk en verdriet, warmte en humor samen te brengen in deze meeslepende roman.
