A review by bend3
The Polish Officer by Alan Furst

4.0

You can tell that he spent 15 years on his first book and then about a year each on the subsequent ones - a lot more of the parts that bad, a lot less of the parts that were good. Still had about 5-6 sequences (usually right at the end of the of the sections he breaks the book into), but just not great at quickly getting me invested in anything. Also, my guy started falling into the old writer creepiness in his third book which makes me a bit nervous to read anything later, but I will because I still feel like I learned more about lived experience of WWII than in any single history class on top of the thrill and the general euro-centricity that is interesting. Would recommend.
