3.0 out of 5 stars
Good mushy love story,
By Beth "bethiejw2" (Mesa, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The lonely (Hardcover)
I was first introduced to Paul Gallico at a young age. The movie Lili was based on his short story Love of Seven Dolls. Since then I've read his stories off and on. "The Lonely" is about a soldier Jerry in World War II who has a sweetheart at home. He gets a few days leave and decides to spend it with a local RAF girl Patches. He explains from the get go that he is only interested in a fling. But through the vacation he changes his opinions on her, the plain Patches suddenly becomes beautiful. When the vacation's over Jerry realizes that he's in love. But telling his narrow-minded Suburban parents turns out to be a harder task than he thought.
The book is short only around 120 so pages. It's worth a read. |
