The Confession of a Child of the Century

Hodnocení knihy

Více o knize

A witty novel of coming of age during wartime in America, the Confession is a "comical historical pastoral" that chronicles the struggles of growing up the son of a Midwestern bishop. Samuel escapes Missouri to attend Harvard, where he gets himself expelled for exploding a footbridge over the Charles River. He is soon sent to fight in Korea and lands in a prison camp. Samuel's picaresque coming of age--by turns both funny and poignant--is truly the tale of "a child of the century."
