Historical
San Francisco City Book Reviews Hawaii, 1968. Vietnam always on the horizon. Closeted, yet still not safe from harassment by certain fellow Marines, Tomby finds a lifeline in a secret friendship with one of their wives‑Valetta. She married for the wrong reason and is stuck on the island with no one she can call a friend‑until Tomby. Their bond becomes a safe harbor as adversaries persist, accidental mentors show up, and Vietnam draws closer. The pressure mounts to choose between duty and truth, and the two friends risk everything for a chance at freedom. Rendered in precise, lived‑in detail that brings to vivid life the Hawaii of Vietnam‑era recruits, Crossings is a novel about desire and constraint, the courage to find true home‑and the heart to make that crossing possible. For readers of The Book of Form and Emptiness and The Great Believers.
