Random Winds

From a quiet turn-of-the-century village in upstate New York to war-torn London, from the bedsides of the rural poor to the life-and-death urgency of a great New York City hospital, this is a powerful epic of three generations of doctors in one magnificent family. The Farrells--dedicated, brilliant.. and driven to the edge of destruction by a love no human force could suppress.

Drammone familiare alla Beautiful, scritto francamente male nonostante i personaggi non siano proprio i cliché balordi che ci si potrebbe aspettare da un libro del genere - fatta eccezione per Merisù, che non poteva mancare: il problema è che si comportano come degli stupidi, specialmente l'ultima generazione. Fastidioso il sessismo sotteso perfino nell'ambientazione moderna.
