A review by subplotkudzu
MASH: A Novel about Three Army Doctors by Richard Hooker

4.0

This was a quick read that was an incredible cultural artifact. The book reeks of verisimilitude which makes the clumsiness of some parts of the writing acceptable. The structure as a series of vignettes made it a natural for the movie and ultimately the TV show, and the changes propagated to the characters and and setting needed for each version of it are fascinating. Well worth the couple hours it will take to plow through.
