PositiveHistorical Novel Society... a beautifully strange read about the turbulent, fragmented era of the Vietnam War and the Apollo program, both of which dwarf and distort the personalities of those involved. Vincent and Fay are not exemplary characters in what is not America’s finest hour. However, they accurately depict the 1960s through the 1980s along with American patriotism and dissidence in this powerful work of historical fiction.
