Between Friends by Robert W. Chambers is a novel that tells the story of two lifelong friends, Harry and Jack, and their experiences in love and war. The story is set in the early 1900s and takes place in New York City and Europe. The novel begins with Harry and Jack as young boys, growing up together in New York City. As they get older, they both fall in love with the same woman, a beautiful actress named Celia. Despite their love for each other, their rivalry for Celia's affection creates tension between them. As World War I breaks out, Harry and Jack find themselves on opposite sides of the conflict. Harry joins the American army, while Jack becomes a German spy. Their paths cross again when Harry is sent to Europe to fight in the war, and they are forced to confront their differences and the secrets they have been keeping from each other. Throughout the novel, Chambers explores themes of friendship, love, loyalty, and betrayal. The story is told through a series of flashbacks and letters between the characters, giving the reader a glimpse into their inner thoughts and emotions. Overall, Between Friends is a compelling tale of two friends who are torn apart by love and war, and the enduring bond that keeps them connected despite their differences.He was making a full length study in clay now. All day long she sat there enthroned, her eyes partly closed, the head lifted a trifle and fallen back, and her lovely hands resting on her heart--and sometimes she strove to imagine something of the divine moment which she was embodying; pondering, dreaming, wondering; and sometimes, in the stillness, through her trance crept a thrill, subtle, exquisite, as though in faint perception of the heavenly moment. And once, into her halfdreaming senses came the soft stirring of wings, and she opened her eyes and looked up, startled and thrilled.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
