Information sur l'oeuvreSoft Touch par John D. MacDonald
   Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.  lamour | Jan 16, 2020 |   Certainly it displays the mores of a different era. MacDonald was in the OSS in the same area during the war as the protagonist had been. He certainly must have seen how the amorality of war can undermine an individuals sense of values. His discussion of the breakdown of the protagonists marriage was partly a thing of the time and partly eternal. Can unhappiness alone explain emotional breakdown? Read as part of my projected goal of reading all or MacDonald’s work.
