Product Description
In this new book from the author of The Jane Austen Society and Bloomsbury Girls, a group of British and American expatriates in 1950s Rome become embroiled in controversy while making a movie about a female Italian resistance fighter during the occupation codenamed La Scolaretta: the Schoolgirl assassin.
A surprise phone call from her late fiancé’s family sends Vivien Lowry of Bloomsbury Girls off on her next adventure. Struggling as a playwright, she moves to Italy both to reckon with her past and create a new future as a script-writer at the Cinecittà studios in Rome. Here she encounters the greatest male bastion of them all, the Vatican, and ends up entangled with the church and the censors while romantically caught between two men: an enigmatic American film financier who is not who he says he is, and a socialist Italian prince and independent filmmaker under house arrest over a censored screenplay.
In this stand-alone novel, Jenner again brings to life a large and intriguing cast, each of whom has a wartime experience from their past that they must revisit in order to move on – Vivien most of all. With surprise appearances by characters from both The Jane Austen Society and Bloomsbury Girls, and cameos by screen legends such as Sophia Loren, Ava Gardner, and Gina Lollobrigida, Every Time We Say Goodbye captures both la dolce vita and the haunting, infinite legacy of war.
