The Daughters of Mars by Thomas Keneally

4.0

War really is a piece of shit. This is a good book. I was absorbed by the story and throughout also had such a sense of the truly insane waste of (mostly young) people's lives through war. Which is what i hear time and time again from my grandparents and their peers. Plus I imagine, anyone who's been affected by war wherever they may be, whatever language they may speak. This story really brings that home as well as being a very interesting read.
