The New York Times’ Michiko Kakutani’s review of Michael - TopicsExpress



          

The New York Times’ Michiko Kakutani’s review of Michael Pitre’s war novel Fives & Twenty-Fives leads with a depiction of the Iraq war as “a deadly, sickening version of the Bill Murray movie “Groundhog Day” — a war not of decisive battles but of seemingly endless efforts to take individual streets and towns, only to lose them and have to fight to take them again, all at enormous, heartbreaking cost.” The review goes on to praise the Iraq war veteran’s precise eye for detail, including everything from making pot-hole repair “dangerous and terrifying” to the PTSD experience of returned soldiers who live their present lives as though they were stuck in a time loop. A fantastic review for this debut novel. villagesquarebooks/book/9781620407547
