With power and emotion, Edward Schwartz gives the readers in The
White Cliff the impassioned story of a broken friendship of two
men--a writer, Martin Bell, and a scientist, Harold Flint. They are
both trapped by their own contradictions: ambition and fear, desire
and obligation, self-confirmation and responsibility. Woven in a
tapestry of inner voices of his heroes, Schwartz takes us from a
movie-studio to a scientific laboratory; from a hospital's OR to
the International symposium; from the church to the KGB office in
Russia. Among personages, whose lives are being entwined into fates
of two main protagonists, there are the following: triangular;
Martin's screenplay-confession into a piece of art; that articles
of faith that have shaped her life, are far too simple; and does
not stop even in treason to satisfy his desires. kaleidoscope of
human life, where and the world of science, and the world of
literature are only two colorful stones among myriads others.
