Description

'A California family is imploded first by private tragedy, then by the war itself . . . [Kohler's] ear for American dialogue is flawless, her historical details spot on. The quality of the writing, too, is astonishing' Lionel Shriver, Financial Times 'Kohler explores the cost of war . . . with remarkable emotional intelligence in this compelling account of a young soldier, Kip, who enlists for Vietnam and his sister, Jeannie, who stays at home in California, adrift in suburbia. Kohler's narrative remains wonderfully calm, though never static. This is a gripping book about war as only a woman could write it' Sunday Times '[Kohler's] prose is astonishing - jagged, fresh and startlingly alive' Daily Mail 'Dark, beautifully written and insightful' Sunday Express 'Masterly . . . Gloriously well-written and deeply imagined' Jim Crace
