Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Jennifer and Steven, a nuclear submarine Captain, have become strangers to one another due to long separations. He leaves for Naval assignments in the North Atlantic. She moves into an academic career at City College and enrolls in literature courses toward a doctorate as well. Both are activists for peace, but neither is aware of all of the connections the other pursues in this period of espionage and cold war. Besides strangers, it seems at times that they are enemies. Set in 1968, their passions collide in Portugal after Jennifer fears that he and his submarine crew are lost somewhere in the North Atlantic. A pacifist, who no longer believes that Steven loves her, she is thrust into the schemes of enemy spies and physically fights for her life for the first time. To protect their son and to reclaim her marriage with Steven, whom she has come to understand during her own struggle for survival, she also risks her life as he has done every time he said goodbye. So, besides greater autonomy for their lives, she and Steven learn they can be separate, but together.
