Title: Great read - excellent historical detail
Review: This book left me feeling a bit disturbed, though I enjoyed it - as it was extremely well-written. Kurt Vonengut filled each page with detail and imagery (honestly, I felt the cold and damp that Howard Campbell was physically feeling - it was that vivid to me). But I never knew WHAT Howard Campbell REALLY was - Nazi sympathizer or spy - sending secret messages through a hate-filled radio broadcast?? Did he become so good at what he was pretending to be that he really started to feel that way? Hmmm...I guess that was the purpose of the story - to leave you guessing. Maybe there was something I didn't catch that answered the question?This book is an emotional roller coaster for a reader as well, as you follow Mr. Campbell's ups and downs with friendships, loves and a helpful "contact."
