Dec. 15th, 2008 01:53 amhere's a chapter from meyer levin's in search, rather startling.
it's about war, rape, and looting.
one note: erik is a reporter who travels with levin in a jeep along the frontline and then, right after the war, across germany. erik is jewish too. he had served in the french army, and his mother had been taken to a concentration camp (he later finds her).
