Zustand: Gut. Zustand: Gut | Seiten: 416 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | "THE SEPARATION is filled with a sense of the precariousness of history; of small events and choices with extraordinary consequences" - David Langford<BR><BR>"Priest is masterful . I'm rather flabbergasted" - Goodreads Reviewer<BR><BR>This is a not-so-straightforward story of twin brothers, rowers in the 1936 Olympics. One joins the RAF, and captains a Wellington; he is shot down after a bombing raid on Hamburg and becomes Churchill's aide-de-camp. His twin brother, a pacifist, works with the Red Cross, rescuing bombing victims in London. But the two brothers - both called J.L. Sawyer - live their lives in alternate versions of reality. In one, the Second World War ends as we imagine it did; in the other, thanks to efforts of an eminent team of negotiators headed by Hess (Hitler's deputy), the war ends in 1941.<BR><BR> THE SEPARATION is an account of how one perceives and shapes the past, and is an emotionally riveting story of how an average man can make a difference.
