Synopsis
Set near San Francisco, this warm and funny novel follows the fortunes and failures of Jack and Milly for sixty years. They marry in 1952, and typical of post-war couples, shift up a class. Optimistic and full of plans, they see themselves living the American Dream. Through the years they cling to each other despite having little in common. But the clinging doesn't always preclude infidelity or disappointment, and the social changes they live through impact on their relationship in complex and surprising ways. Ultimately, though, what holds them together is stronger than what pulls them apart. This is a love story that tells the truth or one or two truths about love and marriage.

Paperback. Etat : New. In Wait for Me, Jack, V.S. Pritchett prize winning author Addison Jones serves Romance fans a rich and honest insight of a 6-decade marriage: the exhilaration, the dysfunction, and the everlasting love that holds it all together. San Francisco, 1952. Swimming eagerly in the possibility of post-war freedom, Jack and Milly marry, hoping to seize their corner of the American Dream and blissfully unaware of what life has in store. As life rolls into the modern age, so do they, clinging to the spark they once held as they meander through life's fortunes and failures. The Times Top Summer Read Wait For Me, Jack cascades backwards through the lives of Jack and Milly and their 63 year marriage. Each chapter is an honest dissection of their relationship, revealing what makes people stay - despite everything. Intelligent, moving and captivating, award-winning author Cynthia Rogerson (under pen name Addison Jones) sheds light on some harsh truths of love and marriage in a novel equal parts joyful and turbulent, crafting a 'deceptively casual, episodic novel' that is 'uplifting and astute' (The Sunday Times). 'Rogerson is a master of fresh and sparky writing.'- The Guardian. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781910985380
