Helpful Score: 1
The author describes this book as "a war story that did not take place on the battlefield but showed us around the edges of a war photograph or news report into the moments just after or just before what we read or see or hear." The primary voices of the story were a news reporter, a young wife left behind, and the postmistress. The book travels between Europe and a small town in the US before the US became involved in the war.
I had not really heard or read about the book prior to reading it. I picked it up because the description sounded interesting. I read it in one sitting! I was drawn in by the characters and the tone of the story. Even though I anticipated some of what happened, it did not matter. I still felt the emotions and the characters coming through the pages.
