Uncertain Seasons

See all formats and editions

The letters of a young soldier to his anxious family at home are the heart of this childhood memoir of a southern girl and cover the years 1941 to the soldier's death in 1944.

His letters, including observations on his budding self-reliance, resourcefulness, and growing distaste for war, are written from North Africa, Sicily, England and France.

To the family at home, they serve as a lifeline to the absent son and brother.

They also provide a counterpoint to his young niece's experiences growing up on the homefront.

The placement of these two narratives side-by-side makes for a powerful and moving story.
