Krátky popis
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'Powerful and provocative' Paula
McLain'Beautiful, engrossing, heart-breaking' Rachel
Rhys'Monumental in a way that few novels dare attempt' Washington
Post The Miltons are a powerful old New York family - the kind of
family that used to run the world. And in 1935, they still do.
Kitty and Ogden Milton seem to have it all: an elegant apartment on
the Upper East Side, two beautiful little boys, a love everyone
envies.When a tragedy befalls them, Ogden comforts Kitty the only
way he knows how - they go sailing, picnic on a small island off
the coast of Maine, and buy it. For generations the Miltons of
Crockett Island revel in a place that is entirely their own. But
it's 1959, and the world is changing: Ogden's firm hire a Jewish
man, Len Levy, who earns the admiration of not only his boss, but
his boss's beautiful young daughter.When Len and his friend visit
the island, the Milton's principles and prejudices are challenged
like never before. At the dawn of the 21st century, the family
money has run dry, and the island is up for sale. Returning for one
last visit, Kitty's granddaughter uncovers disturbing evidence
about her family's wealth - and realizes she is on the verge of
finally understanding the silences that seemed to hover just below
the surface of her family all her life.'Thought-provoking and
propulsive...Welcome to old money, new heartbreak and big secrets'
