3.0

I had made the mistake of watching the movie first, and not really enjoying it. Then reading the book. It truly is heart wrenching and amazing what the human condition can endure. I think what could have made this book more powerful would have been an even bigger focus on what happened after returning from POW camp. It felt like while it was touched on, it was probably just as traumatic and deserves to be a bigger player, in the story of Louie.
