The story flows through love, grief, anger, regret and ends with a satisfying, but not cloying, resolution, The prose is descriptive, engaging and has the comforting, regularity of the Gunnison River flowing through the valleys. . It is a heartbreaking tale of racial bigotry, broken families and war. I was shocked by the Vietnam draft being televised (I am British so it doesn't feature heavily in our education) - what strange Saturday night viewing that must have made.

I very much enjoyed the company of Victoria and her peaches.

A nice story, but for me, it dragged in the middle and too much time passed with almost nothing happening.
