“Who would have guessed that the crusty old war veteran was as conversant about Narnia and Terabithia as he was about Tet and Saigon?”
rhetorical devices aside? this reader would have. 193 pages in, this is not a surprising development. also: he owns a bookstore and just spent the better part of a recent chapter revealing himself to be a softie. That was also not a surprise.
