The Constant Star — Patricia Strother

THEIR LOVE DEFIED THEIR WORLDS

Blonde, beautiful, regal, young Kate Wendall was the perfect product of New York WASP aristocracy. Hard, lean, darkly handsome, Joseph Barsimson was shaped by the poverty and pride of the Jewish Lower East Side, as he fought society's wrongs. -- This is their story of a passion that would not be denied, and a marriage that was the ultimate test of love. It is the story, too, of the bittersweet fruit of their marriage.

Marite, who denied her heritage when she wed a titled Prussian, only to be awakened from her fairy-tale dream by the Nazi nightmare. David, the fighter pilot, who put his life on the line for his American-Jewish legacy. Rachel, torn between the hungers of her flesh and the needs of her spirit in her search for who she truly was.
