Though the subject matter has impact the writing and characters do not. All 3 characters have practically identical thoughts, actions, reasons... there are no personalities. The writing is dry, clipped and repetitive. I struggled to read this one. Moments that could have been great, like when one of them turns against a building to avoid someone they new before the war or when another (or the same one, who knows) is left holding the hat of a dead man and doesn't know how, are wasted and written without any emotional power in them. A lot of things 'seem' this or 'seem' that. Telling not showing DRYDRYDRY. Somebody could have made a very moving book with this historical event but this isn't it.
