The War

The War - Michael McDowell "The War" is the fourth book of six in Michael McDowell's Southern Gothic saga "Blackwater".

This installment takes the Caskey family through WWII and sees several more changes to the composition of the extended family and the family's lumber business.

This one felt more emotional to me than the previous three books with a couple of harsher realities. I can't help but to feel that McDowell is building to some larger tragedy in the remaining two books.
