P. S. Wilkinson - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

When the reader first meets P. S. Wilkinson he is a lieutenant in truce-time Korea, competent, serious about his duties, and impatient to return to the envied existence of his college friends, who are already working in offices, getting married and raising families. But the life to which he returns and his contemporaries—are wide of his expectations. Even the girl he had been in love with, and falls in love with again, is disturbingly different... troubled by needs that seem beyond his capacity—or will—to meet. This is the story of P. S. Wilkinson's coming to grips with the world around him... a young man conscious of his obligations as a privileged member of society and anxious to make good on his commitment. Raised within Institutions—Family, Schools, Military, Business—he has also been raised as a man of Honor, and his problem is to discover an honorable course among the dubious formulas of contemporary life. He seeks Honor in his relations with everyone, from the President of the United States down to a stripper in an East Baltimore Street night club. He is torn and rebels among the differences.
