Reseña del libro "No sense of shame: wasted lives (en Inglés)"
One might be forgiven for thinking that a puritanical old man with a bottle of port could cause such havoc to those around him and to those who were yet to be born; but he did. As a result Raymond was involved in divorce and became stepfather and lover of the girl he had wanted to marry; father to a child he didn't know, finally abandoning wife, lover and son. In making amends thirty years later, Robbie, Raymond's legitimate son, becomes the scapegoat for his anger and guilt. Power, money, love and travel combine to provoke a forbidden love for Bara, who turns the agony of knowing the truth into joy, but she too suffers the fate which has been waiting for her. .....'Robbie, stop, please; I can't have you seeing the children, and involving them with you or with us. You and I are a life apart; apart from them, from this country, this world. You're my dream, my impossible dream come true.' Bara's death provokes Robbie almost beyond endurance, and while Bara's daughter helps to heal the wounds, her son, Jason, does his best to destroy them all. Jason's desire to hurt and embarrass Robbie, leads to drugs, terrorism and international crime, and to his ultimate and risk laden decision. Can the past ever be buried?
