In the Company of Angels

How much of a survivor, in fact, survives? How much must remain
of a survivor for him also to be called a man? You tell me to remember.
All over again. To remember. Perhaps there is nothing left there,
doctor. Perhaps it is all gone.

Bernardo
Greene is attempting to rebuild his life. Imprisoned and tortured by
Pinochet's regime for introducing his students to political poetry, he
has arrived in Copenhagen at the age of forty-nine, to begin, to begin
again.

Michela Ibsen also seeks a new beginning. She
has survived an abusive marriage and the death of a child, but does not
know whether this makes her strong, or even whole. Her latest boyfriend
is young, vain and dangerously possessive.

Michela's
eyes meet Bernardo's over a cup of coffee in the café across the lake.
During a long Scandinavian summer of endless days and pin-point nights,
these two lost souls begin to heal, to forgive and to trust themselves
to love.

A novel about passion in the wake of loss,
pain in the wake of truth, and salvation in the wake of despair,
In the Company of Angels is the mesmeric and quietly
devastating masterpiece from internationally celebrated author Thomas E.
Kennedy.
