O knihe
Jake's grandad is a decorated former soldier, who fought in Europe in the Second World War, but does not seem at all keen to talk about it. It seems to Jake that his grandad has a lot of secrets, and he is determined to find them out. But his grandad won't give them over easily. One day, when Grandad considers Jake old enough, he takes him aside and finally agrees to tell all; but the tale he tells is far from what Jake has been expecting. The cherished, lifelong image he has of his grandad begins to crumble away as he discovers that perhaps this is not the man he thought he knew. With Peter M. Clutterbuck's trademark tongue-in-cheek writing, The Tale of a Reluctant Soldier is on the surface a light-hearted tale of a grandfather and his love for his grandson, but dig a little deeper for the undertones of the effects of war on those who are bound to fight, and the echoes which ring through the following years and decades.
