Inhaltsangabe

To a passerby strolling Boulevard St. Germain, the man and woman ensconced at the café table could be lovers. In truth, they are nearly strangers, an American writer recording the wartime experiences of a dying Frenchwoman. Christine came of age in Paris in 1937, embarking upon a series of love affairs and a career as a journalist in the glittering city of lights, living in true French fashion, with irrepressible *joie de vivre*...even as Adolf Hitler's fascist regime begins its march into France. When Christine pens a series of articles criticizing the appeasement of the Germans, she draws the ire of Nazi spies. Her Jewish husband is arrested, leaving Christine with a brutal choice: succumb to a liaison with a Nazi General or forfeit her life and that of her family. As this intriguing novel unfolds, Christine's deep courage and unfaltering faith in the face of overwhelming odds becomes an object lesson in the importance of individual choice and the power of love and forgiveness. This second edition contains adult language and situations. An Abrideged version is available with the same title: For the Love of Paris - Abridged.
