The End of the Affair

Description

Set in London just after World War II, The End of the Affair follows two characters, Sarah Miles and Maurice Bendrix, navigating life after their adulterous relationship. Having found themselves on divergent paths, Maurice discovers a wedge being driven between them as Sarah’s growing devotion to God bristles against his unwavering love for her. Through their mutual experience of loss, grief, suffering, and ultimately death, the former lovers stumble across the inescapable love of God in the most improbable circumstances.

The fourth and final of Graham Greene’s “Catholic novels,” The End of the Affair is a marvelous, intimate story of the post-war longing for redemption hidden in the wounded desires of the human heart–and of God’s infinite longing to redeem.
