The Fleeting Years

ebook
Should this 1950s wife and mother stay at home with the children . . . or leave the marriage to reignite the career in music she gave up years ago?

This is the story of Peter and Zina Marchand. We are joining them when they have been married some ten years and he is a film star at the height of his career—a household name on both sides of the Atlantic. At the time of their marriage, Zina had already had some success as a solo violinist, but she gave up her career when she was expecting their twins, Fiona and Tom. Surely they are the perfect family—the future seems cloudless. But time doesn't stand still. And Zina is tempted back to her music career.

When tragedy strikes, Peter and Zina are put to the test. Can they come together and repair what they had . . . or will they move on to a life apart?

"Monk's thoughtful portrait of a marriage in crisis will appeal to readers who enjoy midcentury family sagas." —Booklist
