Synopsis

In And This Too Shall Pass, Harris takes us into the locker rooms and newsrooms of Chicago, where four lives are about to intersect in romance and scandal. At the heart of the novel is the celibate Zurich, a rookie quarterback for the Chicago Cougars whose trajectory for superstardom is interrupted by a sexual assault charge by Mia, a sportscaster with her own sights on fame. With his career in jeopardy, Zurich hires Tamela, a high-powered attorney, to defend him, while Sean, a gay sportswriter, covers the story and uncovers his heart.

Review

"Harris offers a moving story filled with warmth and believable, real-life situations."
--USA Today

"So much humor is sprinkled through E. Lynn Harris's warm and timely new novel, And This Too Shall Pass, that we almost miss the pain lying underneath or the significance of its theme: Harris, who has written poignant love stories about African American life before, turns eloquently again to the question of how people--black people in this case--learn to love in a tough and toughening society."
--Pat Holt, San Francisco Chronicle

"A breakout bestseller that features a sizzling mix of fast-paced storytelling, topical subject matter and lyrical sexuality."
--Paula L. Woods, Dallas Morning News

"It is rare to read a novel with African American characters as refreshing as these...Harris keeps the dialogue lively and the action zipping along while fully developing story and characters."

Book Description
