The Forever War

The novel is coming to an end. Although some readers may feel this book seems like a process, like it is dragging on-- the author's stories and anecdotes still are interesting. Looking back at the beginning explanations of the situations he was in early in the war, to where he is now, do vary. I feel that I was struck with the beginning because I didn't know a lot about this subject. Now when I read the novel, the stories are still just as shocking. They are so terrible and heart-wrenching, as a reader you almost become numb to it. I feel maybe this is the author's point, perhaps he has become numb to all the devastation and realizations.
