Overview

Can she have it all--or does she have to choose? And when you choose between two things you love, must one be forever lose? It is the dazzling decade, the 1920s, and a beautiful young singer is torn between her fierce desire for independence--to create something of her own, for meaning and purpose--and a deep abiding love for her husband, a medical missionary who will become royal physician to the court of Siam. Based on a true story, one young woman will travel from Philadelphia of the Roaring Twenties to the jungles of the Orient, to pre-war Paris and Rome, in the struggle to find her place in the world.
