The Alison Plantaine Sagas (1-3) by Maisie Mosco
Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 4.1MB | Retail
Overview: Maisie Mosco was born in Oldham, the eldest of three children. Her parents were of Latvian Jewish and Viennese Jewish descent, and both sides emigrated to England around the turn of the 20th century. A clever girl, she wanted to study medicine but her mother's illness meant that, as the eldest child, she had to leave school at the age of 14 to help in the family business. At the age of 18 she joined the ATS and ended the war helping to teach illiterate soldiers how to read. After the war, she edited a Manchester Jewish weekly newspaper, the Jewish Gazette, subsequently writing radio plays for the BBC, followed by 16 novels between 1979 and 1998.
Genre: Fiction > Romance | Historical
#1 - Between Two Worlds
In a changing world is there room for tradition as well as new ways?
Alison Plantaine was born to the theatre. As a child the life she knew was one of back-stage dramas and highly-charged emotions. The desire to perform is in her Plantaine blood. But when Alison learns about her secret heritage it makes her question the path she has chosen.
Meanwhile, tastes are changing and the family passion for acting is losing touch with trends. A war is breaking out and Alison senses change in the air. Her mother is a gifted actress and wants her daughter to follow in her footsteps. Her father, shrewd and practical, understands that his daughter's respect for family tradition must not stifle her talent and the promise of success. But the decision must be Alison's and she becomes torn between duty and heritage, or the life she always dreamed of on the stage.
#2 - A Sense of Place
She has success but at what price?
The year is 1930 and Alison Plantaine is a star. She is thirty, and in the full bloom of her stage career. But she is lonely, and for years no man had been able to compete with the pace and intensity of her life.
Only when she visits Berlin does she find a passion to rival the theatre. She falls madly in love with Richard Lindemann, who opens her eyes to what is happening around her. He shows her the dangers that may befall a nation under the grip of the Nazi regime. As Alison becomes involved in the concerns of those she cares for she contemplates a world beyond the stage – a world that was moving faster and faster towards tragedy and war.
#3 - The Price of Fame
The post-War shadows are receding – but will they ever disappear?
Love and loss, success and failure, the joy of motherhood and the anguish of rejection – these are the patterns woven into Alison Plantaine's life. But her dedication to the theatre has ensured that her first loyalty will always be to her career. Her son Richard, is old enough to understand that for all her talent Alison most struggles to play the role of mother. Now, having been sent abroad to avoid the horror of war, he returns a rebel and rivals his mother in the theatre world. For, Alison this is the moment she must decide – make way for the sake of her family or stay true to the art that has meant so much to her.
