    In this astute novel of Americans abroad, Ward Just turns his keen eye toward the dark underpinnings of nationalism, fame, and artistic integrity. When a famous Hollywood director travels to post-Wall Germany to rekindle his genius, he is unexpectedly reunited with an actress who mysteriously disappeared from the set of his movie thirty years before. Masterly and atmospheric, The Weather in Berlin explores the subtleties of artistic inspiration, the nature of memory, and the pull of the past Oral History Wannsee, March 1999 -- Los Angeles, October 1998 -- PART 1 Berlin, January -- 1 -- 2 -- 3 -- 4 -- 5 -- 6 -- 7 -- PART 2 Berlin, February -- 8 -- 9 -- 10 -- 11 -- 12 -- 13 -- 14 -- 15 -- 16 -- PART 3 Berlin, March -- 17 -- 18 -- 19 -- 20 -- 21 -- 22 -- 23 -- 24

    Thomas Railles, an American expatriate and former "odd-jobber" for the CIA, is a successful painter living with his beloved wife, Florette, in a small village in the Pyrenees. On an ordinary autumn day, Florette goes for a walk in the hills and is killed by unknown assailants. Was her death simply a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, or was it somehow connected to Thomas's work with the CIA? When French officials detain four Moroccan terrorists and charge them with Florette's murder, Thomas is invited by his boyhood friend (and former agency handler) Bernhard to witness the interrogation. Thomas's search for answers in this shadow world will lead him to a confrontation that will change him forever Copyright -- Dedication -- Part One -- Florette -- Granger -- Lebenslüge -- Freehand -- Part Two -- Bastinado -- Antoine -- Billie Holiday -- Mr. Parlando

    In this, his twelfth novel, Ward Just penetrates more deeply into America's role in the world than he has ever done before. This beautifully constructed large-canvas novel of Saigon in 1965 can be justly compared to Joseph Conrad's NOSTROMO or Graham Greene's THE QUIET AMERICAN. A DANGEROUS FRIEND is a thrilling narrative roiling with intrigue, mayhem, and betrayal. Here is the story of conscience and its consequences among those for whom Vietnam was neither the right fight nor the wrong fight but the only fight. The exotic tropical surroundings, the coarsening and corrupting effects of a colonial regime, the visionary delusions of the American democratizers, all play their part. In A DANGEROUS FRIEND, a few civilians with bright minds and sunny intentions want to reform Vietnam -- but the Vietnam they see isn't the Vietnam that is. Sydney Parade, a political scientist, has left home and family in an effort to become part of something larger than himself, a foreign-aid operation in Saigon. Even before he arrives, he encounters French and Americans who reveal to him the unsettling depths of a conflict he thought he understood -- and in Saigon, the Vietnamese add yet another dimension. Before long, the rampant missteps and misplaced ideals trap Parade and others in a moral crossfire Front Cover -- Front Matter -- Half Title -- BOOKS BY WARD JUST -- Title -- Copyright -- Dedication -- Contents -- The Effort -- The Family Armand -- A Child in Such a Milieu -- Dacy -- Getting Used to It -- A Shooting in the Market -- Assimilate or Disperse -- Big Dumb Blond -- Plantation Louvet -- The Life of the Mind -- Pablo's Hat -- The Arsenal of Democracy

    "The winter of the year my father carried a gun for his own protection was the coldest on record in Chicago." So begins Ward Just's An Unfinished Season, the winter in question a postwar moment of the 1950s when the modern world lay just over the horizon, a time of rabid anticommunism, worker unrest, and government corruption. Even the small-town family could not escape the nationwide suspicion and dread of "the enemy within." In rural Quarterday, on the margins of Chicago's North Shore, nineteen-year-old Wilson Ravan watches as his father's life unravels. Teddy Ravan -- gruff, unapproachable, secure in his knowledge of the world -- is confronting a strike and even death threats from union members who work at his printing business. Wilson, in the summer before college, finds himself straddling three worlds when he takes a job at a newspaper: the newsroom where working-class reporters find class struggle at the heart of every issue, the glittering North Shore debutante parties where he spends his nights, and the growing cold war between his parents at home. These worlds collide when he falls in love with the headstrong daughter of a renowned psychiatrist with a frightful past in World War II. Tragedy strikes her family, and the revelation of secrets calls into question everything Wilson once believed. From a distinguished chronicler of American social history and the political world, An Unfinished Season is a brilliant exploration of culture, politics, and the individual conscience Front Cover -- Front Matter -- Praise for Ward Just and AN UNFINISHED SEASON -- BOOKS BY WARD JUST -- Title -- Dedication -- Copyright -- QUARTERDAY -- 1 -- 2 -- 3 -- 4 -- THE DEBUTANTE'S ARCHIPELAGO -- 5 -- 6 -- THE KING OF CHICAGO -- 7 -- 8 -- 9 -- 10 -- 11 -- 12 -- 13 -- 14 -- FAMAGUSTA -- 15 -- Back Matter -- BOOKS BY WARD JUST

    The American Ambassador is at once a riveting tale of suspense and a thoughtful meditation on the fragility of Western values in an age of terrorism. William North is a Foreign Service officer who fiercely loves his family and his country. His son, brilliant and thoroughly disaffected, sees his father as the embodiment of all that is corrupt in Western democracies. When the younger North aligns himself with a German terrorist organization, the conflict between father and son escalates to a matter of national security. In this breathtaking novel, Ward Just takes us inside the mind of a terrorist, revealing the eerie logic at work there Front Cover -- Front Matter -- PRAISE FOR WARD JUST -- BOOKS BY WARD JUST -- Title -- Copyright -- Dedication -- PROLOGUE -- PART ONE -- 1. -- 2. -- 3. -- 4. -- 5. -- PART TWO -- 1. -- 2. -- 3. -- 4. -- 5. -- PART THREE -- 1. -- 2. -- 3. -- 4. -- PART FOUR -- 1. -- 2. -- 3. -- 4. -- Back Matter -- BOOKS BY WARD JUST
