Описание: * A Book of the Month Club Selection *Jojo Moyes meets Eleanor Oliphant in this utterly charming debut novel that proves that sometimes you have to break your heart to make it whole. From the simple melody of running her violin shop to the full-blown orchestra of her romantic interludes in Paris with David, her devoted partner of eight years, Grace Atherton has always set her life to music. Her world revolves entirely around David, for Grace's own secrets have kept everyone else at bay. Until, suddenly and shockingly, one act tips Grace's life upside down, and the music seems to stop. It takes a vivacious old man and a straight-talking teenager to kick-start a new song for Grace. In the process, she learns that she is not as alone in the world as she had once thought, that no mistake is insurmountable, and that the quiet moments in life can be something to shout about... Filled with charming and lovably flawed characters--and illuminated with the undeniable romance and magic of Paris--Goodbye Paris is a poignant, compulsively readable novel that shows us that when it comes to love, there's more than one way to find happiness.
Описание: Make a connection with these characters as they struggle to find the courage they never knew they had, and the future they thought they'd never see. A powerful and emotional true story of the men and women that overcame all the odds only to face the greatest dangers mankind has ever faced before. On the shores of the English Channel, only days before D-Day, they stand in the crossroads of history preparing to take on Hitler and the Nazi's. Lives are changed, friends become brothers, hearts are broken, and promises are made. Promises to never say goodbye. ***** Five stars. Never say goodbye ByRalph G.on October 19, 2017 Format: Kindle Edition - Verified Purchase This book is extremely well written and grabs you right away. It is such a touching story. War stories are not always about shooting and killing. There are always the nice things about war that should be told. Soldiers are Human. ***** Five stars. Beautifully Written ByRick Lewison October 20, 2017 Format: Kindle Edition - Verified Purchase What a journey this book takes you on. I never wanted it to end. It is truly a story about love, not of war. The story is touching, funny, and poignant. It is almost hard to believe it is a true story. This is a must read for anyone interested in U.S. history and especially about the period between around 1930-1946. ***** Five stars. A Soldier's Impression ByAmazon Customer on October 7, 2017 Format: Kindle Edition - Verified Purchase As a son of a US Army veteran of the 2nd World War, and as a career Army officer myself l found this story to be enlightening and rewarding. The more l learn about my father's generation the more l learn about him, his family, and America. I highly recommend this wonderful story to everyone.
