A review by timturnip
War and Remembrance by Herman Wouk
5.0
Man, what a tale. This book (along with Winds of War) is on the must-read list for - yes - everyone. The other reviews here will give you a plot summary, but I'll summarize by calling this pair of books the quintessential historical fiction. Seriously. WWII is so fascinating, in so many ways...and Wouk captures its essence in a way that will have you hitting Wikipedia for even more backup.
The slow parts of this book are slower than those in Winds of War, but the faster parts are much faster. It's a pretty beefy book, but there's a ton of material here.
I cannot recommend this book enough...though it needs to be read after Winds of War for full effect.
