An epic story of love found and lost, Losing Julia begins in 1928
at the dedication of a memorial to the great War in France.
American Patrick Delaney has come to mourn his fallen comrades,
especially his best friend, Daniel. When he sees a woman standing
alone in the crowd, he realizes she must be Julia, Daniel's lover.
Though Patrick is married, he and Julia fall desperately in love
during the brief but unforgettable time they spend exploring the
still haunted and battle-scarred countryside. Struggling to
reconcile their love with the legacy of war and life's obligations,
Julia and Patrick cling to each other until one fateful step, when
Patrick loses Julia, perhaps never to find her again. From the
vicious savagery of trench warfare to the sometimes comic and often
tragic indignities of life in a nursing home, Jonathan Hull tells a
remarkable story of memory and desire, history and destiny-and of
the people who slip from our grasp, only to hold us forever.
