Description
The world seemed full of promise to Mary van der Linden in 1959. With her loving family and admired husband, she felt carefree. But as the Eisenhower years drew to a close, the shadows of the Cold War began to gather. In this new departure from Faulks' previous work, he masterfully weaves together historical events with personal narrative, creating a rich tapestry of life in 1960s America. As Mary's world is disrupted by the presidential battle between John Kennedy and Richard Nixon, she finds herself drawn into a transfiguring personal happiness - but also confronted with the darker aspects of her country's recent past. This novel is a powerful exploration of one woman's struggle to face death and find meaning in a rapidly changing world.
