Inhaltsangabe

A Perfect Peace is a story about men in love and war.

Set in wartime Britain and France in 1944, nineteen-year-old Bobby Joe Keyes, an athletic, resourceful young man from rural Texas, survives the D-Day invasion of Europe. After he is wounded in battle, he meets another soldier, Anthony James, en route to a recently built American Army Camp in Devonshire. They recognize in each other mutual attraction and mutual need.

A fellow soldier, Bernie Bibbs, together with the war, provides conflict that keeps Keyes and James apart, which draws Keyes into a series of lies, deceptions and sexual misadventures. The transformation of Bobby Joe Keyes from a small town boy to a man who knows what he wants and is not afraid to pursue it, and of Anthony James, who finally is able to put aside his pessimism about his nature and embrace it with optimism, provide hope for those who in today’s world still search for peace with their own natures.

A Perfect Peace conveys the spiritual transformation both men experience, giving them the conviction and strength of character to hope that their love will survive despite the many trials it has and undoubtedly will face in the days to come.
