Gleeful Poignancy and Rue

"Osander preserves the energy of a 25-year-old for whom all youthful thougts and sensations lie less than a decade back, though the era of his novel left us half a century ago. Reading "Country Matters," you may think Fitzgerald, Sinclair Lewis, Salinger and then - startlingly - Henry Miller. But at the Novel's end, any influences have falltne away and you are left with poignancy and rue, the more powerful for being told with gleeful gopher wit." A. J. Langguth "Our Vietnam," "Patriots," "A Noise of War," Saki," "Wedlock," "Jesus Christs"
