Dispute the following claim at your own peril: No one writes better about the Vietnam War than Tim O'Brien. But let's move on to a new, even bigger claim: No one writes better about the Vietnam generation than Tim O'Brien. Need proof? Read July, July. -- Men's Journal O'Brien is intelligent and daring, but he is also eminently accessible; he writes in clear, fluid sentences about people we recognize leading lives that are both emblematic and intimate. -- O, The Oprah Magazine Beset with a surprising array of characters, O'Brien's latest is every bit as haunting as his most celebrated works Library Journal Starred A poignant and powerful page-turner, and a testament to a generation. Publishers Weekly Involving and beautifully written...Once again O'Brien proves he's capable of being one of our brightest and best novelists. [starred] Kirkus Reviews Beautifully written, very moving, and very, very funny... A great book from one of America's greatest writers. --Roddy Doyle An elegy, a reckoning, a chronicle of dashed hopes, July, July does what only Tim O'Brien could do. --James Carroll Funny and poignant, July, July looks into the nature of our dreams and how fulfillment eludes us. --Edna O'Brien This master chronicler of our times has won the battle for hearts and minds once again. --Jayne Ann Phillips A great novel about the '60s by one of Esquire's favorites. -- Esquire ...this story of a Baby Boomer college reunion is both fun and affecting. O'Brien brings alive [a cast of characters] with with, insight and compassion for the ways lives go awry. The Chicago Tribune

- r***g (242)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufBook was "nearly new" and "as described" in listing. The advertised price was fair and a good value. Unfortunately, the seller's shipping partner was very slow to get the book packaged and shipped. Shipping took too long, and the tracking info gave no reliable info on shipping date, time in transit or expected delivery. Seller did everything right, but their shipping partner needs improvement. I recommend this seller to other eBay buyers....... just make sure you're okay with the shipping terms.
- e***u (283)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
- e***n (392)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, JoeDrumsville!: The Evolution of the New Orleans Beat by Robert Cataliotti: Used (Nr. 405155037686)
