The aliens appeared one day, built a base on the moon, and put an
ad on the Internet: ''We are an alien race you may call the
Atoners. Ten thousand years ago we wronged humanity profoundly. We
cannot undo what has been done, but we wish humanity to understand
it. Therefore we request twenty-one volunteers to visit seven
planets to Witness for us. We will convey each volunteer there and
back in complete safety. Volunteers must speak English. Send
requests for electronic applications to [email protected].'' At
first, everyone thought it was a joke. But it wasn't. This is the
story of three of those volunteers and what they found on Kular A
and Kular B.
From Paris in the 1920s to London after the Blitz, two women
find that a secret from their past reverberates through years of
joy and sorrow.
As recovery from World War II begins, expatriate American Nora
Tours travels from her home in southern France to London in search
of her missing sixteen-year-old daughter. There she unexpectedly
meets up with an old acquaintance, famous model-turned-photographer
Lee Miller. Neither has emerged from the war unscathed. Nora is
racked with the fear that her efforts to survive under the Vichy
regime may have cost her daughter s life. Lee suffers from what she
witnessed as a war correspondent photographing the liberation of
the Nazi concentration camps.
Nora and Lee knew each other in the heady days of late 1920s
Paris, when Nora was giddy with love for her childhood sweetheart,
Lee became the celebrated mistress of the artist Man Ray, and Lee s
magnetic beauty drew them all into the glamorous lives of famous
artists and their wealthy patrons. But Lee fails to realize that
her friendship with Nora is even older, that it goes back to their
days as children in Poughkeepsie, New York, when a devastating
trauma marked Lee forever. Will Nora s reunion with Lee give them a
chance to forgive past betrayals and break years of silence to
forge a meaningful connection as women who have shared the best and
the worst that life can offer?
A novel of freedom and frailty, desire and daring, "The
Beautiful American" portrays the extraordinary relationship between
two passionate, unconventional women."
