Mark Helprin

A Soldier of the Great War
Average customer rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
  • The the moving pen on the end of a long line
  • Alternately absurd and tragic, like life itself.
  • Overdone, wordy, lacks depth of character
  • One of Greatest American Novelists of 20th Century
  • Too long?
