Reseña del libro "Pont Neuf (en Inglés)"

From bestselling writer Max Byrd comes an unforgettable evocation and portrait of Paris at the end of the second World War. The splendidly gifted (and faintly scandalous) writer Martha Gellhorn, Hemingway's famously unhappy third wife, is the presiding spirit over a great romance. Two American soldiers, torn apart by the war, meet and fall in love with Martha's protégé--the irresistibly charming and vulnerable young reporter, Annie March. Their story begins and ends on the beautiful Pont Neuf, the oldest and best-loved bridge in Paris. For Annie, every bridge connects two different worlds; to cross a bridge is to make a choice. For her, crossing Pont Neuf means choosing one man over the other, one life over another. It is a haunting love story that will move readers to tears. In its Homeric themes of death and love, Eros and Thanatos, Pont Neuf also recalls the epic sweep of Byrd's earlier novels, especially his acclaimed Civil War novel Grant. Its accounts of the last two massive battles of the war--Operation Market Garden in the Netherlands and the cataclysmic Battle of the Bulge--are riveting and authentic, the result of years of research. These historic moments are not simply a backdrop for romance, but also the treacherous and explosive landscape through which love itself moves. The New York Times called Max Byrd "an expert in blending historical and fictional characters." Pulitzer Prize-winning historian, Joseph Ellis, called him "the reigning champion of American historical fiction."
