A Home in Bohemia II

Viac o knihe

Who is David Wilson? His passport says he is an American. But David Wilson is more than an American living abroad. He is one part Twain's Huck Finn bristling with rebellion against incompetence and corruption gone amuck that has sent his generation to Vietnam and a new generation to Iraq to die for lost causes. Wilson is also part Heningway's Jake Barnes, the veteran seeking a separate peace not in Paris' left bank but in Bohemia. Wilson is also one part Ernest Haycox's Mark Sheridan; the pioneer determined to build with his sweat a business in the heat of old Europe despite all the odds stacked against him.
