Aaron's War by Richard McMaster

  • サマリー

  • Can Aaron kill? According to research only 15-20 percent of the soldiers fired at the enemy in WWII. For soldiers with an aversion to killing, PTSD effects are more profound. Leaving his youth behind, Aaron is forced into manhood as he faces the horrors of war and searches to understand his Jewish heritage. Town after town, he sees churches and synagogues reduced to rubble and bible carrying Germans slaughtered on the battlefields, and he hears stories about Jewish concentration camps. What is being Jewish? What is being Christian? Why is he forbidden to marry the preacher’s daughter? When he returns home, his personal war continues. Overwhelmed by the horrors of war, conflicted by religion, and ravaged by nightmares, he turns to alcohol and makes a painful choice. One particular battlefield experience, a reoccurring nightmare, and to protect his wife, he leaves her. Homeless, far from home, and numbed by alcohol, fate guides him to the man who is the subject of his war nightmare
