Guillaume Musso (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 24, 2008

To all appearances, Eliott’s life has been a success. At 60, he is an esteemed surgeon with a daughter he adores. The only thing missing is Ilena—a beautiful, generous-hearted girl who died 30 years ago. But when he is given an extraordinary opportunity to revisit his past, Eliott suddenly finds himself in 1970s San Francisco searching for the passionate young doctor who has yet to lose the love of his life. What ensues is a story full of intelligence, hope, and humor about making the right choices and trying to keep what we most desire.

Will you be there' is a delightful story about love, friendship, hope and fate. This is second novel by Musso that I got chance to read and I must say LOVE both of them and cannot wait to read more. Both stories with fascinating twist..simply expect unexpected. Look for: 'Afterwards', 'Save me'

This review is from: Will You Be There? (Hardcover)

this is a book about time travel similar to time travellers wife but not as confusing ,as in where they are in time. it is a real page turner you will fly through it. It has been translated i am pretty sure but you would never know it. Perfect book for a weekend away of the holidays..you won't be able to put in down. it isn't prize winning novel but as light books go it is a winner enjoy

This review is from: Will You Be There? (Hardcover)

I came to read this book by a recommendation from my high school French pen-pal, who had read the French version. This book is definitely thought-provoking and a wonderful kind of transition from young adult literature to adult literature as it is very easy reading and not too lengthy but has a bit more of a serious tone throughout the plot. Also, the book itself is absolutely gorgeous and a great hardcover edition to add to your collection :)
