(  )wordmusic | Feb 13, 2009 |   Beach Music is one of my top ten favorite books of all time. I love Pat Conroy's descriptions and how all of the story lines work together. ( )m_loveman | Jul 9, 2008 | jonwwil | May 29, 2008 | Amazing book! I love a book that provides so much detail I can practically visualize the area described. This book was fantastically written. cristinab23 | Apr 1, 2008 | I've read this book several times, which is astounding given the length of it. Conroy's descriptions of his life in Italy inspired me to take a very memorable trip to Rome to see it for myself. His descriptions of the south are just as vivid - turn a page and smell the sea salt. A wonderful, complicated, heartbreaking tale - you can lose yourself totally in the pages.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0553381539, Paperback)PAT CONROY, America’s preeminent storyteller, delivers a sweeping novel of lyric intensity and searing truth–the story of Jack McCall, an American expatriate in Rome, scarred by tragedy and betrayal. His desperate desire to find peace after his wife’s suicide draws him into a painful, intimate search for the one haunting secret in his family’s past that can heal his anguished heart.Spanning three generations and two continents, from the contemporary ruins of the American South to the ancient ruins of Rome, from the unutterable horrors of the Holocaust to the lingering trauma of Vietnam, Beach Music sings with life’s pain and glory. It is another masterpiece in PAT CONROY’S legendary list of beloved novels. (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:05 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
