A Time to Remember

In this novel, psychologist and prolific author Paul R. Robbins takes readers back to the dark days of the Great Depression and to the outbreak of World War II to tell the love story of Jack Jarrels and Alice Burke. Jarrels, a young college professor and writer meets Alice Burke, a promising artist, in a chance encounter during his travels through the American heartland. Their developing relationship is tested by the claustrophobic atmosphere of the small town in which Alice teaches school. Throwing life-long caution to the winds, Alice decides to cast her lot with Jack and they steal away to New York to the Bohemian life of Greenwich Village. Alice finds life in New York very stimulating and in time both of their careers flourish. As the decade ends, war breaks out in Europe. With a growing reputation as a writer and as an anti-fascist crusader, Jack is asked to serve as a foreign correspondent in France. When the German invasion crushes the allies in France, Jack is forced to flee and finds himself caught in the raging hell of the evacuation at Dunkirk. This is, indeed, a time to remember-a time in which America faced existential threats and nurtured what Tom Brokaw called "The Greatest Generation."
