Tom Ashford is
charming, intelligent, amusing, and congenial and he has everything
he ever wanted from life. He's a wealthy and famous playwright,
with influential friends, a beautiful wife, and two sons. Even
so, he knows he is not happy. Nothing he does has meaning and
he avoids any intimacy with people in his social circle. Where
did everything go wrong?
Tom travels to
France on a pilgrimage-to the place where his life once had meaning.
He rediscovers his first love-Eliane, who is now a widow with
four sons and a large farm to manage. Eliane gives Tom an unexpected
gift that allows Tom to view his life and himself with new hope
and with a new understanding.
"Once more Mr. Bromfield has written a wise
and searching story with skill and insight."
