Title: A wonderful journey
Product review: I adored this book. Hull reveals an astute understanding of love and death - two favorite subjects in all of literature - but doesn't trivialize either. Patrick is such a beautifully drawn character that I was willing to make this difficult journey with him, and glad in the end that I did; from his harrowing experiences in the trenches of WWI France, to his equally painful reckoning of his life at its dusk. And throughout, there is Julia. The woman who enters his young life almost as an apparition, and then becomes in many ways the sole reason for his existence. I could almost hear the soundtrack playing behind what is a wonderfully visual journey. My only question: When's the movie? I'll stand in line.
