Sunset: The epic saga of an American family 1917 - 2002

A sweeping, cinematic American family saga spanning the most turbulent decades of the 20th century.

In Sunset, Chuck Gingold delivers a powerful multigenerational epic that follows the Doyle family through war, economic upheaval, cultural conflict, and the shifting social landscape of America. From the hardships of the early 1900s to the explosive cultural changes of the post-war years, the Doyles must navigate a nation in constant transformation-while holding tight to the values that anchor them: loyalty, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond of family.

As the Doyles face battles both public and private-WWII deployments, financial strain, racial and religious divides, personal losses, and moral crossroads-they confront the forces that shape a century and define a people. Each generation must decide who they want to be and what America means to them.

Told with rich historical detail and a deeply human touch, Sunset captures the heart of an American family rising, falling, and rising again through love, duty, and resilience.

Epic, emotional, and beautifully layered, this novel is perfect for fans of Steinbecks East of Eden, family sagas like The Thorn Birds, and prestige drama series that explore the heart of the American story.
