kflo818 's review for:
War and Turpentine
by Stefan Hertmans
I loved this book! It had a slow start for me, maybe because it's translated from Dutch and I had to really get the feel for the author's style. Around page 100 or so, though, I started to feel the rhythm of the book click with me, and I read the rest of it in one day.
It's a beautifully written combination of personal history, speculation, and nostalgic reminiscence, interspersed with some very interesting WWI memories. Highly recommend!
