A Complex Novel,
By A Customer
This review is from: Return To Ithaca (Hardcover)
Mr. Eickhoff's "Return to Ithaca" is a hard look at how a war hero is regarded when he returns home. I am not a Vietnam veteran, but I can say that I felt the agony of what Henry Morgan went through upon his return and the sense of futility that seems to control his emotions. This is a deep, emotional novel, a dark look into the inner man going through an impossible emotional labyrinth in trying to find the person he was before he left for the War. The best war novel to appear in years. Comparable to Mailer's "The Naked and the Dead" but with more intensity than Mailer managed. This is without doubt the work of a tortured genius.
