Peter Golden Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

From the beloved author of Comeback Love comes an “absorbing” tale of forbidden romance set against the segregated American South, war-torn Europe, and the civil unrest of the Sixties. Julian Rose leaves Germany for America at fifteen, initially struggling before becoming a prominent bootlegger and later a successful real estate mogul. Kendall Wakefield, a free-spirited college senior aspiring to be a painter, is the daughter of a former slave and the founder of an African-American college in South Florida. In 1938, a dinner hosted by Kendall’s mother reunites Julian with his parents, rescued from the Nazis. This encounter sparks a thirty-year, on-again off-again affair that takes them from Miami Beach to Greenwich Village and postwar Paris. Along the way, they meet influential figures like Sartre and Picasso, who are redefining culture for a new generation. Their enduring longing for each other remains a constant amidst the changing tides of time. This panoramic tale of twentieth-century America is an unforgettable story of defiant love that “is epic and truly felt” (Kirkus Reviews).

What would you do if you had a second chance with the one that got away? More than thirty-five years ago, Gordon Meyers, an aspiring writer with a low number in the draft lottery, packed his belongings and reluctantly drove away, leaving behind Glenna Rising, the sexy, sharp-witted med student he couldn’t imagine living without. Now, decades later, Gordon is a former globe-trotting consultant with a grown son, an ex-wife, and an overwhelming desire to see Glenna again. Though she’s stunned when Gordon walks into her Manhattan office, Glenna agrees to accompany him for a drink. As the two head out into the snow-swept city, they rediscover the passion that once drew them together—before it tore them apart. And as the evening unfolds, Gordon will finally reveal the true reason for his return. . . . Comeback Love is an evocative journey into the hearts of two lovers who came of age in the 1960s, and who never truly let each other go. Plumbing the depths of youth, regret, and desire, Peter Golden deftly illuminates the bonds that mysteriously endure in the face of momentous change.
