    Be prepared to have your heart torn out!
  

*by R***B on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2011*

Douglas Kennedy is the only author I know who just gets better with each novel, which may have something to do with the fact that he doesnt feel the need to churn a book out every year or stick to a formula or character. Each novel is unique. However there were moments when reading his latest that I wondered if this was the novel that was going to disappoint. It seemed slow and was a bit like watching paint dry. How wrong I was. At the conclusion he delivered the biggest sucker punch I have yet experienced through the written word. Not only did I cry (howl actually)all that night but it continued through to the next morning. How in god's name does he harness emotion to that extent let alone communicate it. The only time I have experienced anything similar was through reading Thomas Mann's "The Magic Mountain" which left me convinced I had TB.Douglas Kennedy is without doubt my favourite author. A monumental talent without peer. Incidentally I recently picked up one of his earlier 3 travel books "Chasing Mamon", which was good, but am grateful that he got into writing 'fiction'. I also recently read a non-fiction book by Anna Funder called "Stasiland". The author travelled to East Germany and interviewed various people about life under a Stasi police state. The facts in her book mirror situations and incidents in "The Moment". Which tells me that Kennedy does some very serious research. And now I only have to wait another two years for his next book (sigh)

    Romance remembered from a divided Berlin
  

*by S***T on Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2012*

Robert Kennedy has written one of his most powerful and challenging contemporary romance novels, set mostly in the days of a divided Berlin. Thomas Nesbitt, an  American writer is facing the loneliness of a failed marriage that was always probably doomed to failure because of Nesbitt's memories of what might have been. His memories are revived when he receives a box in the mail from Berlin, with a return address marked Dussman, the name of a woman with whom he had shared a most passionate and damaging relationship many years ago.The book revisits Berlin in the days of the Berlin Wall and describes the relationship between a young American writer and a beautiful woman refugee from the evils of the East German Stasi. Kennedy's description of the relationship is top notch,  and you get to know (or think you know) the main characters living in a world of deception, betrayal, and survival that we quickly forget after the end of the Cold War. His background of both sides of the Berlin Wall at that time is both evocative and chilling.Kennedy's supporting characters are also superbly crafted, especially Alistair a larger than life talented artist who balances life as a homosexual and drug addict with intense artistic creativity laced with suicidal tendencies. When Nesbitt arrives in Berlin he saves Alistair's life and shares Alistair's apartment, putting up with his new friend's wild and different lifestyle. Amazingly, despite their differences they become a most unusual pair of supportive friends.This is a challenging but rewarding book which you will remember for a long time.

*by K***K on Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2018*

I hadn't realized that Douglas Kennedy had written so many books.Having read "The Job" so many years ago and having really loved it I was thrilled to refind him."The moment"is a fabulous read.It is history,romance,betrayal,family etc etc et al.It has it all, and for the first time in years I found myself still turning pages in the middle of the night,thinking I really should go to sleep now! I am now on his third book and in the same predicament.I dare you!Find one of his books and open it!
