Fade In Two

In attempt to appreciate life beyond his privileged existence, Californian scriptwriter John Williamson volunteers for a humanitarian organization in Africa. Suddenly he finds himself within exotic Tunisia where destitution, inquisitive locals, and a charming English coworker renew his senses. This new life lends the American a fresh appreciation for all that is valuable including that beautiful colleague who has made known her forbidden relationship with a local manager. Later, a mountain retreat presents John with a contemporary eden all while a new disease begins to threaten his village and perhaps his own existence. Only the arrival of a young physician from Italy provides hope that not all will wither within that Tunisian community. Paola has come to lend her expertise to a dilapidated infirmary that's beset with patients harboring the mysterious malady. Nevertheless, John's relentless self-doubt tests Paola's noble strength and forces the young doctor to confront the most fundamental question of her Hippocratic Oath. A novel that is both alluring and subtle, " Fade In Two "evocatively blends differing themes of love and lost opportunity. Such offsetting landscapes as an arid Tunisian desert and a rainy avenue of Rome steer the novel towards a hauntingly beautiful conclusion. 9780692313626 0692313621 286 BOOK NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=TojzoQEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
