Loved this book. I can't remember if I had ever read any Michener, but his writing is great and this deals with the period of my early adulthood so I could total relate to the angst about Vietnam and other issues regarding becoming an adult.

I would have been a teenager when I read this. It certainly reinforced my desire to explore the world.

Hồi 17 tuổi chưa hiểu các vấn đề trong truyện đọc ngáp lên ngáp xuống, nay đọc lại hay vãiii @@ Joe, Brittia, Monica, Cato, Yigal, Gretchen. Theo nhiều cách khác nhau, tôi đồng cảm được với tất cả bọn họ
