A collection of 10 short stories all using Grand Central Station at the end of WWII as the starting point, from some of the biggest names in women's fiction.
Ten bestselling authors inspired by New York City's iconic Grand Central Terminal have created their own stories, set on the same day, just after the end of World War II, in a time of hope, uncertainty, change, and renewal....
A war bride awaits the arrival of her GI husband at the platform...A Holocaust survivor works at the Oyster Bar, where a customer reminds him of his late mother...A Hollywood hopeful anticipates her first screen test and a chance at stardom in the Kissing Room...
On any particular day, thousands upon thousands of people pass through Grand Central, through the whispering gallery, beneath the ceiling of stars, and past the information booth and its beckoning four-faced clock, to whatever destination is calling them. It is a place where people come to say hello and good-bye. And each person has a story to tell.
Featuring stories fromMelanie Benjamin, Jenna Blum, Amanda Hodgkinson, Pam Jenoff,Sarah Jio,Sarah McCoy,Kristina McMorris, Alyson Richman,Erika Robuck, andKaren White
With an Introduction by#1 New York Times bestselling authorKristin Hannah
