In Sunlight and In Shadow by Mark Helprin

Two star-crossed lovers lock eyes on the Staten Island ferry in May 1946 and a glorious story of love, secrets, loss, and perseverance begins. Mark Helprin's In Sunlight and In Shadow is a story of New York at mid-century; rise of immigrants; descendants of slaves; racial prejudice; love unrequited and more.
