註釋

Kay Boyle's deeply moving new novel (her first since The Seagull on the Step) is set in a small Hessian town during the American military occupation of Germany. Its characters confront one another across the chasm of national differences between the conquered and the conquerors. Chiefly they are the American Military Commander of the Post, his sensitive wife, their college freshman daughter, and two Americans who seek her love, one a civilian, the other an army officer, all seen through the eyes of a young German newspaperman. Kay Boyle has employed all of her unique, well-known artistry and human warmth in telling the story of what ensues when antipathy, love, and social tension begin to interact. The result is a novel of palpable distinction.
