2.0 out of 5 stars
An adequate, but enjoyable look at grown stanford frat boys,
By Anthony J. Mohr (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Into What Far Harbor?: A Novel (Hardcover)
Willie Williams and his fraternity brothers from "the University" (Stanford thinly disguised) go through the second world war and return to pick up their lives. Their problems are as expected: the cold war, the Vietnam War, their alienated offspring, and -- par for the course for Drury -- latent homosexuality among some of the brothers and marital problems (usually boredom and the greener grass syndrome) among most of the others. Trite as it sounds, the book will entertain you, especially if you formed an attachment to this group whom Drury first introduced in "Toward What Bright Glory". Even though it is a distinctly mid brow read, chances are if you start it, you'll hang on until the not so surprising end.
