I was told by the author that I have read the book more than him. Extremely gripping. You forget that you’re reading a piece of fiction and not the main character’s personal journal. Great entry point for people looking to read historical/realistic fiction.

Goes into detail about the trauma Doug’s oldest brother got from Vietnam. There’s a graphic scene that could be seen as a parallel for family sexual assault where Doug’s father takes him to an unknown location while drunk and forces him to get a tattoo.
