Book Review: A Great Book That Anyone Can Relate To
Summary: 5 Stars
Kristen Tsetsi's HOMEFRONT explores the side of the Iraq war that we havent heard much about: the loved ones that are left behind, many of whom dont know what is happening from one day to the next in a country half a world away. The book is written in first person and is told from the position of a female cabbie who basically wanders through life after her boyfriend heads off to war in a cloud of malaise. But what takes this novel to the next level is that it is relatable to anyone who has ever been in a relationship where one or both parties are unsure of where they stand. I know I've been there. The prose is exquisite, the mood heartbreaking. Reading HOMEFRONT had a profound effect on me as I was going through my own relationship ordeals as I read it. She spoke my own yearnings, my own helplessness in a situation where one has no control and can only wait for whatever fate decides to bring down.
