Boone He was so smart he wrote half the English papers for the freshman class, when he wasn't getting drunk at night and waking up hung over in the morning. To him life was full of promise . . . just the ones it didn't intend to keep.   Jennifer She was the campus golden girl, so rich, so pretty, that every boy wanted to take her out. Except Boone. He wanted to marry her. John He was tall and blond with blue eyes and a cleft in his chin like Cary Grant's. He didn't have Boone's lively imagination, but he had something Jennifer. Praise for Love and Glory “[Robert] Parker writes with economy and precision and wit and passion. . . . Love and Glory  [is] one of the best love stories I've ever encountered.” — The Press-Chronicle “A straightforward, unrelenting, shamelessly romantic novel that's about a two-year obsession. . . . It works . . . [and] love stories that work are almost an extinct breed. Almost.” — Santa Cruz Sentinel “Parker's writing is like fine architecture or music—it's both intricate and direct. There are no false notes.” — Chicago Sun-Times
