A collection of short stories from a perfect list of writers who are masters in historical fiction and all of these stories are centered around a US landmark - Grand Central Station. Set during the conclusion of World War II, many people may their way through Grand Central Station for many reasons and these authors tap into many of those reasons.
Not only was this a collection of short stories that all had a location in common, they magically weaved their characters in and out of each other stories and I adored it! I couldn't believe that they were able to get these characters to show up so seamlessly in the backgrounds of each others stories - can you tell that I loved it?! Each story was so unique in their way of portraying the events that were happening at the close of the war and also in different parts of the country.
