A grand-scale novel spanning four decades,
Traditions is the celebration of the family
that is America--and the family that is
Tiernan.
At the center of Traditions are the two
Tiernan sisters, Carolyn---beautiful, reli-
gious, and principled--and Margaret--
spunky, sexy, and irreverent. Different as two
sisters born of the same Tradition can be,
they are drawn to all corners of the earth as
their talents, drives, and desires lead them
from the sound stages of heyday Hollywood
to the time-worn "boards" of Broadway;
from London s West End theatres to the ex-
otic art world of postwar Paris. They live,
love, and work behind the footlights, the
klieg lights, the cameras, and are seen on the
television screens of America and the world.
Each sister raises a family. There are four
children, each different, with dreams and de-
sires all his own. Yet the Tiernan Tradition
remains the unbreakable thread that weaves
through the patterns of their lives and three
generations from the Depression and war
years; from the frantic fifties to the sexy, tur-
bulent sixties and seventies.
With drama and verve, Traditions chron-
icles the lives of this theatrical family that
is tied together, even kept alive, by its
Traditions.
Alan Ebert s rich prose and Janice Rotch-
stein s exhaustive research combine to create
a rare and compelling novel.
