I closed the book a few minutes ago and am still wiping tears away. Beautifully rendered. Heartbreaking and plot twisting and so very human. One of the best books I’ve ever read. If you don’t know anything about the nurses of the Vietnam War- read this book. Their courage and sacrifice should be noticed by one and all.
