Synopsis:

A sequel to The Soldier's Return focuses on World War II soldier Sam Richardson's eight-year-old son, Joe, who in the years before adolescence struggles with the changes that the war has brought to his family.


Review:

"Like its predecessor, a marvelous and very rich tale, all the more powerful for its quiet tone and restrained narration."
