Absolutely perfect!” —Publisher’s Weekly Spanning the years from the optimistic post-War 1940s to the Mad Men 1950s and rebellious “Make Love, Not War” 1960s, DECADES is about three generations of women and the dynamic but flawed man they all loved. Evelyn, talented but insecure, faithful to the traditional values she grew up with, is a loyal and loving wife whose marriage means everything to her. Nick, handsome and ambitious, a chameleon who changes with the changing times, is her successful but restless husband. Joy, their daughter, coming of age at a time of anger and rebellion, needs them both but is torn between them. Barbara is the other woman. Younger than Evelyn, accomplished but alone, she wonders if she can have everything--including another woman's husband. But can she? Is she willing to pay the price? And how will Evelyn handle her rebellious daughter, her straying husband and the threat to her marriage? Sweeping in scope yet intimate in detail, DECADES is the emotional, compelling story of family and marriage, betrayal and healing. DECADES REVIEWS: “A brilliant book. Three generations of women are succinctly capsuled in this novel by a writer who has all the intellect of Mary McCarthy, all the insight of Joan Didion. Rarely have attitudes been so probingly examined—tough, trenchant, chic and ultra-sophisticated, Ms. Harris recreates the decades in which her heroines lived, from zoot suits and Sammy Kaye, through Eisenhower, Elvis and poodle-cut hairdos to moon walks, Mick Jagger and micro-minis. Readers will be entertained and few will be able to forget what Decades has to say about men and women and the games people play.” —Fort Worth Star-Telegram “A terrific novel about a singular single girl.” —Cosmopolitan “Ruth Harris has re-created both the style and substance of three decades of American life—from the bobby socks and innocence of the Forties, to the crinolines and caution of the Fifties, to the bra-less T-shirts and alienation of the Sixties.” —Book-of-the-Month Club “Powerful. A gripping novel that depicts the lives and loves of three generations of women.” —Women Today Book Club “I read Decades straight through at one sitting and the more I think about that, the more impressive the novel seems.” —Houston Post DECADES, Book #3 in the Park Avenue Series, was originally published in hard cover by Simon & Schuster.
