It’s an engaging story with lots of variety. It feels casual and laid back in one moment and life threatening, chaotic, and frantic in the next. The synopsis pitches this book as a romance, but I’ve found that’s the B-plot to what reads as a man’s play by play of his experiences on the front lines of WW1 Italy. The dialogue is intriguing and witty, and the characters feel sharp. It’s a snippet of time.
