Consequences is a love-story-times-three that opens on the eve of the next World War, with the opportunity meeting in St. James's Park, London. Wholly in love, Lorna and Matt leave the location for a cottage in a rural Somerset village. Their intimate life together is shattered when the war starts and by Matt's tragic death doing his thing.Two decades later, their daughter, Molly, happens after a forgotten newspaper-a seemingly small moment that brings about her first job and, eventually, a pregnancy with a wealthy man who wants to marry her but whom she will not love. Nonetheless it is her own daughter, Ruth, who starts the journey that will need her back to 1941-and a redefinition of herself and of love.Told in Lively's incomparable prose, Consequences is a powerful story of growth, death, and rebirth and a study of the prior century-its major and minor events, its shaping of public consciousness, and its own changing of lives.
