As a 100 percent disabled Vietnam Veteran, due to Agent Orange exposure, I fully related to Carl Iverson.For years I couldn't speak about the war, whether because of the shame the American public cast upon our service, or because of my participation in the war itself.Sprayed and betrayed by our own government, then shunned by the rest of the country, no wonder so many of us went insane or turned to self-medication.I loved the plot of The Life We Bury, Mr. Eskens' mastery of detail and his mastery of the art of storytelling, I would have given it a 5-star rating, if it weren't for some details, and editing issues that struck me as not quite hitting the mark.For example, nobody who had ever graduated from Army recruit training would ever refer to it as "Boot Camp". His spelling of the Vietnamese town of Khe Sanh (the site of one of the deadliest and costliest battles of the war) as Que Son, would leave any Vietnam Vet scratching his head, and wondering why. One other glaring example was referring to the M16 as a gun. No military personnel would ever call his weapon a gun. There were some other editing issues that detracted from a great story by a first rate storyteller.Mr. Eskens, my hat is off to you, for telling a tale, that from my perspective, symbolically exonerates Vietnam Veterans.Thanks to you sir, from me and all that deserved better when they came home. May we all come out of the shadows, take our place as proud Americans, and look closely at the life we bury.Robert Romaniello, Author of Marble Mountain Memoirs.
The back-jacket summary drew me in and proved (unlike so many novels) to be an honest pitch: A story about a student writer who, somewhat by chance, locates the subject of his biographical (college class) project at a nearby nursing home. The biographical subject, a Vietnam War vet who was convicted of rape and murder 30 years earlier, is dying of cancer thereby introducing an added, looming deadline to finish the writing project. The writer begins with the weary task of documenting the life of a murderer but, through his research, revises his mission to that of uncovering the buried truth of the old murder.This novel is probably classified as a thriller but I consider it a literary thriller. There's thrills and spills to make it a page turner but it doesn't over rely on such action. For me it was the rich character development, character interaction and psychological aspects that make this a great story and read. My only disappointment (albeit minor) is that the story never reveals if the class project (the biographical paper) was a success with the English professor and whether the student decided to become a journalist or professional writer. As a reader I was left to draw my own favorable conclusions for these minor questions.I seek out debut novels as they tend to be more honest than the writing of more "experienced" writers who often seem to be lured off course by fame, fortune and laziness. This novel is genuine writing and I'm looking forward to this author's future work, hoping to find similar honesty. I'm recommending and/or gifting copies of this novel to all of my reading friends.
First Sentence: I remember being pestered by a sense of dread as I walked to my car that day, pressed down by a wave of foreboding that swirled around my head and broke against the evening in small ripples.Joe Talbot’s college English course writing assignment to write a brief biography leads him to a local nursing home and Carl Iverson. Carl, dying of cancer, had been released from prison after being convicted of the rape and murder of a neighbor girl. Carl’s only condition is that both parties be honest. As Joe digs into Carl’s conviction, the more he believes Carl. He also finds there’s someone who doesn’t want that to happen.Eskens as a wonderful voice which captures, and holds, one’s attention—“Oddly enough, my high-school guidance counsel never mentioned the word “college†in any of our meetings. …--maybe she knew who my mother was and figured that no one can change the sound of an echo.†His descriptions make the ordinary come alive—“The archive room had the feel of a tabernacle, with millions of souls packed away on microfilm like the incense in tiny jars, waiting for someone to free their essence to be felt, tasted, inhaled again, if only for a moment.â€â€”as does his strong sense of place—“The triplex apartment building I lived in had an ancient cellar that breathed dankness up through the floorboards, filling the structure with a pungency born of wet dirt mixed with the tang of rotting timber.Eskens’ characters come to life. They are fully developed and dimensional. As much as Eskens may tell us, one wants to know much more—“Are you talking about killing or murdering? “Is there a difference?†Mr. Iverson looked out the window as he pondered the question…â€Yes,†he said. “There is a difference. I’ve done both, I’ve killed…and I’ve murdered.†What’s the difference?†“It’s the difference between hoping that the sun rises and hoping that it doesn’t.â€Joe is humanity and the defender. He is the one who is always there for his autistic brother. He is the one who doesn’t accept Carl at face value. He is the one willing to ask questions. He is the one willing to dig into Carl’s case to find the truth. Lila, Joe’s neighbor, starts out as prosecutor, the common person who sees the label and judges. It is to Eskens’ credit that her role changes as the story progresses.There are elements of wisdom—“But we do have control of how much of our soul we leave behind in this mess.†There is also a metaphorical ticking clock, and actions by Joe which fall into the too-stupid-to-live category, but both elements add tremendous tension. Unfortunately, there are also a lot of coincidences. The ending is a bit over the top, but it also makes one smile.“The Life We Bury†has a lot to recommend it; the author’s voice, interesting characters, and excellent suspense. One will want to read more by this author.THE LIFE WE BURY (Trad Mys-Joe Talbert-Minnesota-Contemp) – VG+ Eskens, Alan -Standalone Seventh Street Books, Oct, 2014
