Robbins’s books have won popularity on every continent; they have been translated into dozens of languages and, by their circulation, occupy one of the first places in the history of literature. Such colossal reader success is explained above all by Robbins’s brilliant style, marked by dynamic plot development, masterful play on the reader’s emotions, deep knowledge of the world of business, and spicy eroticism. The smooth flow of lyrical melodrama in Robbins’s novels is replaced by scenes of violence typical of a “hard-boiled detective story,” which in turn give way to portrayals of bloodless, yet no less merciless clashes between titans of big business. Robbins’s prose, with its swift rhythm, enchants even the most demanding reader, keeping them tense from the first page to the last.
The novel “Never Leave Me” is the story of a tragic love between an advertising-business magnate and the steel king’s niece. The romantic line of the plot unfolds against the backdrop of a brutal struggle between sharks of big business—relentlessly devouring one another.
