A passionate historical epic of love and war from the author of the National Book Award-winning An American Requiem and the classic bestseller Constantine's Sword

At the height of World War I, Douglas Terrell, an Anglo-Irish aristocrat, leaves Ireland and his family to fight in the English Army against the Germans. Pamela, his beautiful English wife, driven by her own fierce loyalty, defies her people as well as the Crown itself while Jane, his sister, meets a revolutionary who is determined to fight for Irish independence--even if it means siding with the Germans against the English.

The knotted alliances and conflicting loyalties of this Anglo-Irish family meet their ultimate test during the Easter Rebellion of 1916 and demonstrate how trying to act honorably can be fraught with heartbreak and disappointment--yet offers the only way to live.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent novel.

I read this book not long after it first came out and loved it. I loaned a copy to a friend with whom I later had a falling out, and thus I never got the book back. I just rebought it because I want to read it again. Some of the scenes still haunt me almost 30 years later.

5.0 out of 5 stars Irish story about World War I and the literary scene in Dublin
Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2007
Verified Purchase
Well-researched story about the Irish experience during WWI including references to some major writers of the period told from POV of a young woman in Dublin. James Carroll is a smooth writer, not overly intellectual but not overly sentimental either. His characters are real and the story is very good.
