Losing Julia (Abridged, Audio cassette, Abridged edition)


Read by Ralph Waite
3 Cassettes, 5 hours 15 minutes

From an American nursing home, Patrick Delaney reflects on the Great War, his comrade in arms, Daniel, and Daniel's beautiful wife, Julia.  Having first fallen in love with her through the letters she sent to Daniel on the front, Patrick knew he was meant to be with Julia the minute he saw her at the memorial service at Verdun, France, on the 10th anniversary of the great battle that left Patrick without his best friend, and made Julia a widow.  Though married, Patrick falls desperately in love during the brief but unforgettable time they spend together exploring the still battle-scarred countryside and grappling to make sense of what took place there and what it means to their lives.  Struggling to reconcile their love with the havoc of war and life's obligations, Julia and Patrick cling to each other until one faltered step when Patrick loses Julia perhaps forever.
