I am just speechless
by the stories in this book. Each story could be read alone or read together as
each one links one part of the previous story on one day in September 1945, in
Grand Central Terminal. I have read some of these Authors and I was in great
anticipation for this book. The authors write with such vividness, I felt as
though I was in the station with the characters. I truly believe that this book
of novellas could be a movie. I want to thank Kristina McMorris for putting
this idea to work. I will be sure to be reading all of these authors again.
If you love
historical fiction this is definitely the work at its best.
Synopsis:
A war bride awaits
the arrival of her GI husband at the platform...
A Holocaust survivor works at the Oyster Bar, where a customer reminds him of his late mother...
A Hollywood hopeful anticipates her first screen test and a chance at stardom in the Kissing Room...
On any particular day, thousands upon thousands of people pass through New York City's Grand Central Terminal, through the whispering gallery, beneath the ceiling of stars, and past the information booth and its beckoning four-faced clock, to whatever destination is calling them. It is a place where people come to say hello and good-bye. And each person has a story to tell.
Now, ten bestselling authors inspired by this iconic landmark have created their own stories, set on the same day, just after the end of World War II, in a time of hope, uncertainty, change, and renewal....
