Read a sample Read a sample
Beach Music is about Jack McCall, an American living in Rome with his young daughter, trying to find peace after the recent trauma of his wife's suicide. But his solitude is disturbed by the appearance of his sister-in-law, who begs him to return home, and of two school friends asking for his help in tracking down another classmate who went underground as a Vietnam protester and never resurfaced. These requests launch Jack on a journey that encompasses the past and the present in both Europe and the American South, and that leads him to shocking - and ultimately liberating – truths. With this first e-book edition of Beach Music, RosettaBooks proudly becomes the e-publisher of all five of Pat Conroy’s novels, including The Water is Wide (filmed as Conrack with Jon Voight), the autobiographical The Great Santini (filmed starring Robert Duvall), The Lords of Discipline (filmed as well) and the international bestseller The Prince of Tides (filmed by Barbra Streisand). Now one of America’s best loved and most widely read novelists, Pat Conroy has brought his unique knowledge of the South and his wide range of human experience home to the reader. Pat Conroy writes about what he knows – he began The Prince of Tides while living in Rome, as a young teacher of English he married a widow of a Vietnam veteran with two children. The top of the worldwide bestseller lists await each new Pat Conroy work, as they did for Beach Music.
