As a boy, Horatio Adams had a predilection for tracing any given moment's origin. When he was twelve years old and his parents drowned on the Titanic, obsession with the conspiracy of memory, identity, and demise fastened on him, culminating years later in the sequence of tragic events contained in The Long, Long Love.
Against the nestled, genteel setting of 1950s Nashville and Middle Tennessee, Walter Sullivan plots Horatio's darkly misguided love for his two wives and his rigid reverence for a legendary Confederate ancestor. Told in the alternating voices of Horatio and his daughter, Anne, Sullivan's evocative novel explores the danger of destroying what we cherish when we fear too much its loss.
