Description

This novel describes war and politics involving members of an aristocratic American family during the years 1943 and 1944. War is chronicled through the eyes of the family's younger members: Robert Crayton, a scientific, philosophical army surgeon; and his brother Michael, an impulsive, daring lieutenant in the United States Army Infantry. They train in the United States, transfer to England, participate in the Normandy invasion and march toward Paris. Older generations of the family provide the political intrigue: Elizabeth Stone, the family matriarch; Andrew, her son; Edwina, her daughter; and Senator David Andersen, Edwina's husband. Their malevolent interactions as each one tries to prevent the other's political success sets a destructive course that inevitably leads to the novel's surprising conclusion. Interspersed throughout the novel are philosophical discussions between Robert Crayton and others regarding human behavior, death, and religion which promote understanding of the diverse behaviors displayed by the book's characters and humankind in general.
