However, Book 3 seemed to ramble away from the main storyline just to be able to stuff in certain modern themes that weren't relevent to the main characters and this felt very out of place (both plot-wise and historically).
BUT that being said. The novel needs to come with CONTENT WARNINGS.
The book had some very adult themes, and I had to skip parts. Almost setting it down for good. I was NOT prepared for the character-specific profanity nor the detached descriptions of sex (while not graphic seemed vulgar due to the language chosen and the coarse nature of the descriptions). For these two reasons alone, I can't recommend this one.

The research it took to create this book and incorporate so many interesting characters into the story much have been tremendous, and I’m grateful to have learnt so much about history through this work of literary fiction. I had never considered the world wars through a non-Western lens before, so this was an eye-opening reading experience.
