The sound of gunfire filled the theater as the newsreel appeared on the screen. Jake Boone, a doctor in Virginia, treating survivors of The Great War, had gone to see The Wizard of Oz for a brief respite. Little did he know that the newsreel of the German invasion of Poland would radically reshape the next five years of his life. Joining the Royal Army Medical Corps, he is assigned to the 51st Highland Division, seeing the British side of the war in Europe through American eyes, from the Battle of France to El Alamein, from North Africa to Normandy. Returning home damaged in body and soul, Jake is haunted by the men he could not save, and love he found and lost.
Book Description: Jake Weylin came home from Afghanistan a broken man. The former USMC scout sniper is lost between the dreamlike operas stuck forever in his head, and life in Anacostia, a hardscrabble Washington D.C. neighborhood. Some days he's back in Kabul. Other times he's lost in the land of the 'brave and the free.' He doesn't know what he's searching for until he locks eyes with the new nurse at the free clinic and thinks, 'Do I know you'While in the Marines, Lacy Wright served by providing security to the international press corps in Afghanistan. Now she carries every image of the carnage she witnessed like a curse. To deal with the pain of all those hard memories, she commits the men and women she saw die to canvas. With a steady hand, she gives them a few last moments of life. She breathes on them and she talks to them. She calls it painting them home. Jake calls it crazy. He may be right.
For ages 12+. Jake takes place during one of the single most powerfully shaping times in a person's life -- secondary education. Through the metaphor of the utopian and fictitious St Stephen's Episcopal School, author Arch Montgomery shows us how our humanity can only be fully realised through other humans. The book depicts three deaths and one near-fatal disease while simultaneously tracking the rebirth of Jake, the titular and main character. He moves from a transparent 'only-good-as-I-have-to-be' mentality to a lifestyle of excellence and three-dimensionality with the help of his school, which is personified through the characters of Mary White, rector; George Meader, teacher; and Joel Kohn, student. On a continuum of education quality -- satisfactory, good, great, excellent, ideal -- where does St. Stephen's fall? Where does the school you went to, or your children go to, fall? These and many other questions arise in Jake, and beg to be discussed, because once problems are recognised, they can begin to get solved.
