With the spectacular worldwide success of his unforgettable novel The Prince of Tides, Pat Conroy established himself as a major international writer. He is known for his anguished and painfully honest insights into families and the human heart. He now returns with Beach Music, a story which tells of a family haunted by dark memories that reach back into the unutterable terrors of the Holocaust. Jack McCall, an American living in Rome with his young daughter, is trying to find peace after the recent trauma of his wife's suicide. But his solitude is disturbed by the appearance of his sister-in-law, who begs him to return home, and of two school friends, who want his help in tracking down another classmate who went underground as a Vietman protester and never resurfaced. These requests launch Jack on a journey that encompasses the past and the present in both Europe and the American South: a quest that leads him to shocking and ultimately liberating truths.

As a child of the 60's this reflective look at the life of a group of teens and the adults they become is 'right on'. Pat Conroy nails the era, life in a small town, being a part of a dysfunctional family, and still manages to impart, with heartfelt emotion, man's inhumanity to man in the Holocuast. I love this book!

Pat Conroy really has a way with words. His words captivate you, you will want to read it over. Sometimes I would read a paragraph over again and admire the way he wrote. It's a heartwarming book, and still has humor.
