The award-winning author of The O'Briens and The Regulation of Dreams now gives us a destructive novel of love and family set in the violent years between 1914 and 1938 as European countries staggers between two world wars. Our narrator is Billy: born to a German daddy and Irish mother on the Isle of Wight warmer summer months estate of the German-Jewish Baron von Weinbrenner. This is actually the storyline of Billy and the baron's entrancing princess, Karin, and the dangerous paths they travel as their years as a child attachment deepens to a complicated love overshadowed by the go up of the Nazis. Their storyline will take us from a fantastic Edwardian warmer summer months on the Isle of Wight to London under zeppelin invasion to Ireland on the brink of its Battle of Freedom and finally to Germany in the darkening Weimar period, where Billy and Karin come old in a country wounded by warfare and seething with hatred. On Baron von Weinbrenner's stud farm outside Frankfurt, they show a passion for racehorses as well as for the Wild Western books of Karl May, whose dream of get away from to El Llano Estacado, a richly dreamed New Mexico panorama, becomes a robust beacon of liberty as Germany marches toward Hitler, warfare, and the Holocaust. Richly dreamed, deeply investigated, and profoundly moving, Take Me personally is a love storyline, a historical epic, and a robust deep breathing on the assault of Europe's 20th hundred years.
