Book description
Taken from Jeffrey Archer's second collection of short stories,
A Twist in the Tale
, comes this irresistible, witty and ingenious short read.
Benjamin's childhood dream was to win the mile in the West Mount High
School championships, but his attempts were peppered with taunts about
his very traditional Jewish upbringing. And he is besotted with
Christina - even though she is seemingly a key perpetrator of the
slander. Told through a series of poignant letters written by Benjamin
to his estranged father the rabbi, this is a tender, heart-wrenching and
ultimately devastating tale of first love - and final promises.
