Recenzii

“In this touching sequel to Crunching Gravel: A Wisconsin Boyhood, [Robert Peters] recalls his search for self-knowledge and sexual identity as a young draftee in WW II. . . . This elegantly written memoir has much to say about the relationship between sex and the military life.”—Publishers Weekly

“Peters is neither sentimental nor mawkish in his coming-of-age story, which is made complicated by his ambivalence over his strong homosexual feelings. It is a rare adult who can convey the anxieties of youth as vividly as Peters does.”—David Azzolina, Library Journal

“Peters’ frank confessions and lush recollections paint a bittersweet portrait of a type of wartime experience that has seldom been explored.”—Kurt Chandler, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
