| Great joy, great sorrow, great passion--her magnificent new novel of the pain oflife . . . and the triumph of the humanspirit. Only Cynthia Freeman could havewritten this incandescent tale of love andstruggle stretching over a lifetime. OnlyMrs. Freeman could have created AnnPollock Coulter--a heroine of strengthand beauty, with the indomitable will toprevail in both the good times and thebad. Only the author of Illusions of Love could have chronicled a woman s feelings with such enormously affecting realism, drawing the reader into the thrill of youthful infatuation, the profound sadness of intimate disappointment, and the radiant peace of maturc romance. When young San Francisco shopgirl Ann Pollock met the dashing, aristocratic lawyer Phillip Coulter, she fell instantly in love with him. That he returned her love seemed too good to be true, a real-life fairy tale guaranteed to have a happy ending. And when they married-- against the objections of both their fa milics--they knew that nothing, be it poverty, separation, or catastrophe, could shake their adoration for each other. But that was 1941, and all too soon events far greater than the two of them would tragically prove them wrong. |
