Aprs̈ 17 ans de vie commune, une mr̈e de trois enfants s'aperȯit que son mari la trompe et fait face ̉un divorce. [SDM].

Passé la surprise et l'émerveillement suscités par Ayla, la jeune étrangère aux cheveux blonds qu'ils ont recueillie, les hommes du "clan de l'ours" ont pris peur de ses dons extraordinaires. Parce qu'elle prétend chasser comme les hommes, parce qu'elle sait rire et pleurer, éprouve des sentiments inconnus d'eux, parce qu'elle voudrait garder son enfant pour elle seule enfin, Ayla sera maudite et exilée. "Pars à la recherche de ton peuple, lui a dit Iza la guérisseuse. Va vers le nord, retrouve ton clan et un compagnon." Un long voyage solitaire commence, au bout duquel Ayla rencontre deux jeunes gens insouciants et aventureux. L'un d'eux est Jondalar. Comme elle, il est blond et ses yeux sont bleus.

Een rijke en begaafde Amerikaanse amateurfotografe vindt op een zeereis naar Europa haar geluk, al wordt de vervulling ervan vertraagd door de Tweede Wereldoorlog.

When a beautiful young Frenchwoman and a brilliant American actor meet in wartime Paris, their love begins like a fairy tale but ends in tragedy. Suddenly orphaned, their three children are cruelly separated. Megan, the baby, adopted by a family of comfortable means, becomes a doctor in the rural Appalachia. Alexandra, raised in lavish wealth, marries a powerful man whose pride is in his pedigree and who assumes that Alexandra is her parents' natural offspring. Neither of them has the remotest suspicion that she is adopted, or what turbulent tragedy lurks in her past. And Hilary, oldest of the Walker children, remembers them all, and the grief that tore them apart and cast them into separate lives. Feeling the loss throughout her life, and unable to find her sisters, she builds an extraordinary career and has no personal life. When John Chapman, lawyer and prestigious private investigator, is asked to find these three women, he wonders why. Their parents' only friend, he did nothing to keep them together as children and has been haunted by remorse all his life. The investigator follows a trail that leads from chic New York to Boston slums, from elegant Parisian salons to the Appalachian hills, to the place where the three sisters face each other and one more final, devastating truth before they can move on.
