The O'Briens - Paperback

by Peter Behrens (Author)
The O'Briens is an unforgettable saga of love, loss, and change spanning half a century in the lives of a restless patriarch and his splendid, tragic, ambitious clan.
In Joe O'Brien--backwoods boy, railroad magnate, brooding soul--Peter Behrens gives us a fiercely compelling man who exchanges isolation and poverty in the Canadian wilds for a share in the dazzling possibilities and consuming sorrows of the twentieth century. When Joe meets Iseult Wilkins in Venice-by-the-Sea, California, their courtship becomes the first movement in a symphony of the generations. The O'Briens is the story of a marriage and a family moving through the turbulence of history, told with epic precision and wondrous imagination.Author Biography
