Book Description:
'There can be no doubt that Styron is the foremost writer of his generation' Wall Street Journal
From the Back Cover:
The Long March has a grandeur that comes from being perfectly direct, yet deeply imaginative about a very simple time...Choicely eloquent at the numberless levels that mark all the greatest writing’ Sunday Times
In The Long March Styron depicts conflicts between men of somewhat more than average intelligence and the military machine. Two marine reservists fight to retain their dignity while on a grueling exercise staged by a posturing colonel.
‘The Long March impresses us not merely as an extraordinarily vivd account of a physical ordeal but as a vehicle discovering and exploring a new them: that of the rebellion of those born into a generation of conformists’ Philip Rahv
