Such braving writing, that conclusion, as authors rarely complete that kind of narrative so directly. I agree with you that the daddy stuff wasn't really developed in full, though since this is part of a trilogy, maybe Faulks was touching on war trauma's intergenerational effects in order to link to the other books.<br /><br />Wow, I still totally talk like an academic sometimes.<br /><br />If you read _Burmese Lessons_, let me know what you think!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13500987056424242419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205449672705523803.post-52070219213514437552010-12-17T21:17:08.241-05:002010-12-17T21:17:08.241-05:00Coolness.
