There is no question that the writing is excellent. The setting and events are vivid and let you live in an influenza ward for three days. But the book is short on plot. I liked the main character, but I never got a sense of what she wanted or where she was going. I got even less of a sense of where the book was going. I’m not sorry I read it, but I don’t recommend it if you like plot driven stories. And one more picky thing: the lack of quotation marks to mark dialogue drove me to distraction.

Any writer would consider themselves blessed to have half of Helprin’s facility with language. The prose is lyrical and heavily peppered with insightful turns of phrase. Scenes are described vividly, and the characters (at least the male characters) are fully fleshed out. Reading (or better yet listening to) “A Soldier of the Great War” is spending time with a master of the craft of writing. So why four stars instead of five? The story is told through the point of view of an elderly man who is recounting his life when he was at the peak of his strength. It has the flaws of that kind of story. It is sometimes disjointed. It often portrays Giuliani as almost superhuman. It’s a long book, and after a while the indulgent ramblings of an old man, no matter how eloquent, wear thin. If, however, you stay with it, you will be rewarded with a section of riveting narrative, a brilliant image or a golden turn of phrase. I will read it again, probably more than once just to watch a master at work.
