Missed Trains by Arthur Cavanaugh w Dust Jacket Novel

$7.50

RailroadTreasures offers the following item:

In this moving and remarkable novel, Arthur Cavanaugh, the talented author of Leaving Home and The Children Are Gone, has created a love story that is as powerful and as contemporary as anything in fiction but that goes back into the nostalgia, the hurts, the fears, and the longings of all our childhoods and all our dreams.

It is a love story about two young people, each of whom has stepped away from and concealed a past that is too painful to face and each of whom finds in the other, and in the world of the theater in which they meet, a future that promises to make them whole again. Christopher, a child star turned stage manager, is running away from his father's death and from his own tentative feelings about himself. Maggie, a beautiful young actress on the verge of great success, is running away from a father who abandoned her and from a small-town scandal that almost destroyed her.

Their meeting, their growing confidence in their love and each other, and the way in which the past eventually surfaces to engulf them are at the heart of a novel of uncompromising honesty and strength.
