A MAGNIFICENT DRAMA OF A WOMAN'S UNCOMPROMISING HEART.
Lucy Moore is a woman who loves not wisely, but too well. Possessed of a fierce, unyielding devotion, she stakes her entire existence on three great passions-her husband, her son, and her God.
Set against the rugged, shifting backdrop of early 20th-century Scotland and England, A. J. Cronin's powerful 1932 masterwork follows Lucy's relentless quest for perfection in those she loves. From the intense, domestic struggles of early marriage to the sacrificial hardships endured for her brilliant son, Lucy demands everything of herself-and everything of those around her. But in her fierce desire to possess and protect, lie the tragic seeds of her own undoing.
Written with the deep psychological insight and rich, emotional realism that made Cronin a global literary phenomenon, Three Loves is a haunting, unforgettable portrait of pride, passion, and the devastating cost of a love that refuses to bend.
"A monumental achievement... profound, moving, and intensely human."
