As America''s economic and cultural influence grew in the 20th Century, the history of the literary arts in Europe cast a long shadow onto this burgeoning nation. And thus, the myth of the Great American Novel was born of a loaded question—would the United States ever produce a work to rival the accepted great works of Western Culture? Many tried. And, in the trying, many looked to model themselves after already extant writers and works which had gained positive notice (as standing on the shoulders of giants has always been one accepted route to success and acceptance). So herein this Megapack, Wildside press offers for you four also-rans of the early to mid 20th Century, four widely varied attempts to grab at that brass ring called The Great American Novel.

Love Conquers All is the remarkable true story of an unexpected romance between two people from different worlds.Steve Vincent, a sailor finishing his tour of duty and preparing to return home to South Carolina, had no idea that his life was about to change forever. More than 2,000 miles away, Dr. Guadalupe Espino had just completed medical school and was beginning her career in Mexico. Their paths should never have crossed, yet fate brought them together in a small rural community in South Carolina.There was one major obstacle: Steve spoke only English, and Guadalupe spoke only Spanish. Unable to communicate through words, they relied on smiles, gestures, and the language of the heart. Against all odds, they fell deeply in love. Just a few months later, they were married—with a translator helping them exchange their wedding vows.How does a love story like this happen?The answer begins fifteen years before they ever met.As a freshman in high school, Steve met Patricia Espino, a foreign exchange student from Mexico. Unknown to either of them at the time, Patricia would one day play a pivotal role in bringing Steve and her sister Guadalupe together.Filled with faith, perseverance, adventure, and personal transformation, Love Conquers All is a journey through language barriers, cultural differences, sickness and health, trials and triumphs, loss and blessings. It is a testament to the power of uncommon love, proving that true soulmates can find each other despite any obstacle.A heartfelt story of courage, destiny, and the belief that love truly does conquer all.
