Frontiers

What we truly desire is too often unclear even to ourselves....

A year that began lightheartedly in a Long Island college class, ended on a frightening note. In Frontiers, we are once again in Lorient, Paris, New York, as well as now in London and farther afield. Isabelle, James, Valerie, Virginie, Mark, Beatrice, Stephane, Natalie, Lena, and others - including James's crime novelist, philandering Uncle Bill - are back. What lies ahead?

Frontiers leads us through 1995-1996, continuing the story begun in Passports: Atlantic Lives, 1994-1995. As in that first volume, R. J. Nello's poignant fiction gracefully weaves history into the ongoing tale. Once again, we share the travels, drama, romance, joys, and sorrows, facing friends, families, and lovers, on two continents.
