Allbooks Review Recommends The Stamp
Genre: FictionTitle: THE STAMPAuthor: Ed Brodow
Good looking, athletic Lieutenant TommyCourten has a bad guy, good guy personality. Rough and ready to go at a moment's notice, necessary attributes for the front linesof Vietnam, with a gentle, thoughtful interior that gives him the control andability to reason, making it possible to live in an ordinary society. He marries but that doesn't work. Heworks for IBM, but that company is too confining and controlling. He just doesn't fit. Though Tommy doesn't really fit theMarines either, he does his best and learns some valuable skills he will soonneed. Then his kid sister, Ellen, is killed. Her boyfriend cannot keep her aroundonce she becomes pregnant because he is married. If she had just left him alone, it would not have happened,he theorizes. Tommy must getrevenge. The police and militarydo not seem to be able to do anything because the accused, Private RodneyZapata, has fled to Bogota. Tommytakes justice into his own hands and flies to Columbia in search ofRodney. There he finds his preybut he also finds Luz from an area called Guajira. Only Luz and her people can save Tommy's life, not just hisphysical body but also his heart and soul.
Ed Brodow has written a crisp, intensestory about the life of one man, Tommy Courten through the eyes of another, afriend of Tommy's. This uniquetreatment gives this novel a sense of intensity as his friend sees Tommy's lifethrough his own reflections on his life and those of friends and family closeto him. Tommy's friend sees different experiences as "Stamps on the Forehead"of individuals. The Vietnamese War was a stamp on Tommy's forehead, a time inhis life that would change him and not allow him to move forward. Then, as heis trying to do just that, Ellen's death again forces him back into his oldpattern. Only exceptional wisdom and love can change the stamp on Tommy'sforehead.
This is an exceptionally well written story and I HIGHLYRECOMMEND it.Reviewer: Elaine Fuhr, Allbooks Reviews
