User-Contributed Transcription May 19, 1964Dear Jack:I left two novels with Mr. Hill,at Hill & Want. One of themyou read & wrote as follows:"The novel is well done & a welcomerelief from the livid, hard-swearing,i[ndefatigably] screwing, & tough-acting soldiers we've had plentyof in recent fiction aboutWorld War II. It has anappealing elegaic strain & someof it, praticularily the latersections, are comparable to Hemingway's A Farewell To Arms.
