Artículos relacionados a The Purple Fox
Whether the hunter or the hunted, the experience of war is a memory the veteran will carry to the grave, some consciously and some not. A few can talk about it, but many do not. Written by a former Marine helicopter pilot, The Purple Fox breaks through the silent solitude that those who have shared frontline combat know only to themselves, in blunt, refreshing honesty. Set during the crucial midway point of America's ten year participation in the Vietnam conflict, The Purple Fox is a graphic, uncensored snapshot of a desperate, confusing time and its intensely emotional impact upon a struggling young man--one caught powerless in a quagmire, wrestling with unraveling marital bonds, an unpopular and alienating war, and with his increasingly suppressed spiritual nature. And losing to them all--or seemingly so. The final and finest fellowship of all is one of change, a willingness to change our thinking through our actions. The Purple Fox paints the picture of the price one man paid for his love of flying--and the beginning of his personal journey back from a torturous, twisted flight into the unknown.
