Think of England -- Alice Elliott Dark

Two cataclysmic events occur on February 9, 1964. The Beatles appear on <i>The Ed Sullivan Show</i> and later that night, nine-year-old Jane MacLeod's life changes forever. It has been said that children are good observers but poor interpreters. Jane's interpretation of the events of that evening shapes her life in ways she doesn't recognize. <i>Think of England</i> follows Jane from an intense love affair in the ex-pat scene in punk-era London to working motherhood in New York to a family reunion in the country -- and a reckoning with the ghost that has stood between her and her dream of a happy family.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Alice Elliott Dark<br><b>Publisher:</b> Simon & Schuster<br><b>Published:</b> 05/06/2003<br><b>Pages:</b> 272<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.70lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.70d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780743234979<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>New York Times</i> 06/01/2003 pg. 36<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><i>Alice Elliott Dark</i> is the author of <i>In the Gloaming</i> and <i>Naked to the Waist.</i> Her work has appeared in <i>The New Yorker, Harper's, Prize Stories: O.
