Тени нашего прошлого Сара Блейк
ISBN: 978-5-00131-340-3 Год издания: 2021 Издательство: Синдбад Язык: Русский «Тени нашего прошлого» — роман о судьбах трех поколений Милтонов, нью-йоркской семьи из тех, о которых говорят: «они правят миром».
1935 год. Китти и Огден Милтон на вершине счастья — они молоды, красивы, любят друг друга, у них прекрасные дети... Но идиллию разрушает трагедия — в результате нелепой случайности пятилетний сын выпадает из окна их квартиры на четырнадцатом этаже.
Пытаясь как-то отвлечь Китти, Огден покупает остров Крокетт-Айленд с большим красивым домом на нем. Здесь все дышит покоем и безмятежностью. Этот дом станет родовым гнездом Милтонов. В нем вырастут их дети, а затем и внуки…
В начале нынешнего века финансовое положение уже не позволяет третьему поколению семьи владеть островом и домом. Начинаются разговоры о продаже. Эви Милтон отправляется на остров, чтобы попрощаться с домом, в котором провела так много счастливых дней. Ее случайная находка приведет к крушению мифа о безукоризненных Милтонах, столпах американского общества. -

ISBN: 0670920436, 9780670920433 Год издания: 2020 Издательство: Viking Язык: Английский The Miltons are a powerful old New York family - the kind of family that used to run the world. And in 1935, they still do. Kitty and Ogden Milton seem to have it all: an elegant apartment on the Upper East Side, two beautiful little boys, a love everyone envies. When a tragedy befalls them, Ogden comforts Kitty the only way he knows how - they go sailing, picnic on a small island off the coast of Maine, and buy it.
For generations the Miltons of Crockett Island revel in a place that is entirely their own. But it's 1959, and the world is changing: Ogden's firm hire a Jewish man, Len Levy, who earns the admiration of not only his boss, but his boss's beautiful young daughter. When Len and his friend visit the island, the Milton's principles and prejudices are challenged like never before.
At the dawn of the 21st century, the family money has run dry, and the island is up for sale. Returning for one last visit, Kitty's granddaughter uncovers disturbing evidence about her family's wealth - and realizes she is on the verge of finally understanding the silences that seemed to hover just below the surface of her family all her life. -

The Guest Book Сара Блейк
ISBN: 9781250220868 Год издания: 2019 Издательство: Macmillan Audio Язык: Английский A lifetime of secrets. A history untold.
No. It is a simple word, uttered on a summer porch in 1936. And it will haunt Kitty Milton for the rest of her life. Kitty and her husband, Ogden, are both from families considered the backbone of the country. But this refusal will come to be Kitty’s defining moment, and its consequences will ripple through the Milton family for generations. For while they summer on their island in Maine, anchored as they are to the way things have always been, the winds of change are beginning to stir.
In 1959 New York City, two strangers enter the Miltons’ circle. One captures the attention of Kitty’s daughter, while the other makes each of them question what the family stands for. This new generation insists the times are changing. And in one night, everything does.
So much so that in the present day, the third generation of Miltons doesn’t have enough money to keep the island in Maine. Evie Milton’s mother has just died, and as Evie digs into her mother’s and grandparents’ history, what she finds is a story as unsettling as it is inescapable, the story that threatens the foundation of the Milton family myth.
Moving through three generations and back and forth in time, The Guest Book asks how we remember and what we choose to forget. It shows the untold secrets we inherit and pass on, unknowingly echoing our parents and grandparents. Sarah Blake’s triumphant novel tells the story of a family and a country that buries its past in quiet, until the present calls forth a reckoning. -

ISBN: 9780141972541 Год издания: 2011 Издательство: Penguin Язык: Английский The wireless crackles with news of blitzed-out London and of the war that courses through Europe, leaving destruction in its wake. Listening intently on the other side of the Atlantic, newly-wed Emma considers the fragility of her peaceful married life as America edges closer to the brink of war. As the reporter's distant voice fills the room, she sits convincing herself that the sleepy town of Franklin must be far beyond the war's reach.
But the life of American journalist Frankie, whose voice seems so remote, will soon be deeply entangled with her own. With the delivery of a letter into the hands of postmistress Iris, the fates of these three women become irrevocably linked. But while it remains unopened, can Iris keep its truth at bay? -
The Postmistress Сара Блейк
ISBN: 0425238695, 9780425238691 Год издания: 2011 Издательство: Berkley Books Язык: Английский In 1940, Iris James is the postmistress in coastal Franklin, Massachusetts. Iris knows more about the townspeople than she will ever say, and believes her job is to deliver secrets. Yet one day she does the unthinkable: slips a letter into her pocket, reads it, and doesn't deliver it.
Meanwhile, Frankie Bard broadcasts from overseas with Edward R. Murrow. Her dispatches beg listeners to pay heed as the Nazis bomb London nightly. Most of the townspeople of Franklin think the war can't touch them. But both Iris and Frankie know better...
The Postmistress is a tale of two worlds-one shattered by violence, the other willfully naïve—and of two women whose job is to deliver the news, yet who find themselves unable to do so. Through their eyes, and the eyes of everyday people caught in history's tide, it examines how stories are told, and how the fact of war is borne even through everyday life. -
