Epic in range, Marge Piercy's sweeping novel encompasses the wide range of men and women and places designated by the Second World Battle. Each of her 10 narrators has a unique and compelling account that powerfully depicts his or her personality, desires, and fears. Special attention is directed at the ladies of the battle effort, like Bernice, who rebels against her domineering daddy to become a fighter pilot, and Naomi, a Parisian Jew sent to live with family in Detroit, whose twin sister, Jacqueline - still in France - joins the amount of resistance against Nazi rule. The horrors of the attention camps; the heroism of soldiers on the beaches of Okinawa, the skies above London, and the seas of the Mediterranean; the brilliance of code breakers; and the resilience of families waiting for the go back of sons, brothers, and fathers are all conveyed through powerful, poignant prose that resonates. Absent to Military is a testament to the normal people, using their flaws and interior strife, who rose to guard liberty during the most incredible times.
