Book Release for The Lost Letter by
local author Jillian Cantor
A NOVEL OF LOVE & SURVIVAL INSPIRED BY WWII RESISTANCE MEMBERS
“Past and present collide in Jillian Cantor’s latest propulsive and eloquent gem of a novel. Cantor captures the gravity of wartime Europe and combines it with powerful stories of love, loss and self-discovery. The Lost Letter is transporting; its flawless, breathtaking finale will make readers fall deeply in love with this stunning tale.” —Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author
The Tucson J is thrilled to celebrate the launch of The Lost Letter by local author Jillian Cantor.
A beautiful, poignant and devastating novel, THE LOST LETTER illuminates the lasting power of love. From a stamp engraver’s apprentice in Austria on the eve of Kristallnacht to a journalist coping with her father’s memory loss in Los Angeles in 1989, THE LOST LETTER traces the path of a mysterious love letter that connects generations of Jewish families. Expertly weaving together stories inspired by real WWII resistance workers who used coded messages in stamps to communicate and a propulsive modern day family mystery, THE LOST LETTER explores what it means to love across time and place.
Jillian Cantor is the author of award-winning novels including, most recently, the critically acclaimed The Hours Count and Margot. Born and raised outside Philadelphia, Cantor currently lives in Arizona with her husband and two sons.
