An American expatriate in Rome unearths his family legacy in this sweeping novel by the acclaimed author of The Prince of Tides and The Great Santini
Â
A Southerner living abroad, Jack McCall is scarred by tragedy and betrayal. His desperate desire to find peace after his wifeâ€™s suicide draws him into a painful, intimate search for the one haunting secret in his familyâ€™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 lifeâ€™s pain and glory. It is a novel of lyric intensity and searing truth, another masterpiece among Pat Conroyâ€™s legendary and beloved novels.
