Anmeldelser
«Extraordinary and utterly irresistable ... a compelling and compassionate story»
Los Angeles Times
«The only one of my contemporaries who I felt had more talent than myself was James Jones. And he has also been the only writer of any time for whom I felt any love»
Norman Mailer
«Certain places seem to exist mainly because someone has written about them. Kilimanjaro belongs to Ernest Hemingway. Oxford, Mississippi belongs to William Faulkner ... A great deal of Honolulu itself has always belonged for me to James Jones»
Joan Didion
«From Here to Eternity has fine qualities in abundance... No novel had so vividly - and shockingly, to a civilian readership - conveyed the brutality of peacetime army life»
Times Literary Supplement
«A blockbuster of a book... raw and brutal and angry»
The New York Times
«The achievement of an exceptional novelist... Filled with a wide range of human emotions, with humour and nobility, with rage and love, with savagery and tenderness»
New York Herald Tribune
«Ferocious... the most realistic and forceful novel I've read about life in the army»
The New Yorker
