De tankar som boken lägger fram är typiska för sin tid. Den skulle vara helt ointressant om dessa unkna gamla antaganden från första halvan av nittonhundratalet inte framfördes då och då även i den dagliga debatten. Andra världskrigets skugga vilar tung över denna roman.
till sist förstod jag att tanken med boken är nog en kritisk betraktelse av armén som hjärntvättning, men överlag så var den så tjatig att den inte var särskilt njutbar att läsa. eller snarare lyssna på, det var en ljudbok.
