Father and son, bound by a love-hate relationship and self-loathing, live disparate lives...until the going gets tough. Then, despite the odds--and because of them--they reunite. For I Have Sinned is a powerful novel about the human capacity to love and resent at the same time. As the son of a World War II soldier, and a survivor of the Vietnam War, Michael Deeze drew from personal experiences to form a snapshot of how a father and son internalized their war experiences to survive. For I Have Sinned is not only for those who have been to war, but for those who stayed home, reviled war and saw the damage in their returning soldiers.
