Only time reveals the truth - Part One

The Memoirs of the Cliffton Family is the most ambitious production by Jeffrey Archer during his four-decade career as a novelist of global stories. The epic story of Harry Cliffton's life begins in 1919, in the streets of Bristol. His father was a war hero, but twenty-one turbulent years will pass before Harry discovers the truth about his father's death, and whether he was actually his father. The novel ... "Only Time Reveals the Truth" features remarkable characters who endured after World War I and until the outbreak of World War II, when Harry had to decide whether to enroll at Oxford University or join the fight against Hitler's forces. Thanks to Jeffrey Archer's skill in writing, the book takes you on a journey you don't want to end, even after flipping the last page of this unforgettable novel; because you will face a dilemma you didn't expect, neither you nor Harry Cliffton himself. From the atmosphere of the novel, we read: "This story wouldn't have been written if I hadn't become pregnant. And to remind you, I always wanted to lose my virginity during work trips to Weston-super-Mare, but not specifically with that man. Arthur Cliffton was born on Steel House Lane; just like me. We even went to the same school; Meriwood Elementary, but I was two years younger, so he didn't even know I existed. All the girls in my class were enamored with him, and not just because he was the 'captain' of the school football team. And although Arthur never showed any interest in me when I was in school, everything changed quickly after he returned from the Western Front. I'm not sure he really knew who I was when he asked me to dance with him that Saturday night at the 'Palace.' But, to be fair, I had to look at him twice to recognize him; because he had two thin mustaches and combed his hair back like Ronald Coleman. He didn't look at any other girl that night, and after we danced the last waltz, I knew it was only a matter of time before he asked me to marry him..."
