Professional Reviews
Professional Reviews <b><i>New York Times Book Review</i>:</b> "'From Here to Eternity' is so uninhibited in its vocabulary, so outspoken in its descriptions, that it is bound to shock. It is a book for adults. Mr. Jones uses profanity skillfully, as do most soldiers for whom swearing is a way of making endurable the unendurable....Make no mistake about it, 'From Here to Eternity' is a major contribution to our literature, written with contempt for the forces that waste human life, and out of compassion for men who find love and honor and courage in the lower depths, where they are less apparent but sometimes more enduring. Its author speaks to us across an ocean of unshared experiences but from a world of common values. He makes us care about his soldiers and caring about them, we care about humanity."
