Luke did something for which he can’t forgive himself. So, he throws away a baseball scholarship and joins the army to get away from his memories. At boot camp, he is befriended by one who’s been through worse and who stays by him through their tour in Vietnam, eventually gaining forgiveness. Read several months ago, my memory is that this was set in the main character’s home of Louisiana, his boot camp in Florida or Alabama, and then Vietnam, the settings were decently rendered. Examining the family dynamics as they change with Luke's big events, the characters were drawn alright, as well. My favorite character was the friend. Details are fuzzy after this amount of time, but the spirit of the story has stayed with me. I wasn’t blown away by the writing, but it is a good story. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
This gut-wrenching debut novel explores the qualities of faith, courage, and redemption in light of tragic loss. When Luke Hatcher's friend dies as a result of a ball-playing accident, Luke swears he'll never play ball again--and never believe in a God who doesn't answer prayer.

Luke grapples with all the things we wonder about: Where is God when bad things happen? Why is forgiveness so hard? Will we ever be whole again? Author Max Davis does a great job of bringing us into this young man’s crisis and leaving room for us to ask our own hard questions about the depth of God’s love and forgiveness. This book can be read by everyone, but especially those who have been to war. ( )
