Summary |
"A soldier has been sent home for burial from Iraq following his absurd drowning death; the returning veteran is alive in “Over Here,” but, shattered, he is lost both to himself and the parents who love him. Jason is as lost to America as America is to him. He ends up homeless, living with a companion under a bridge. His silent tenderness towards her-he caresses her head, gently awakening her to a new day-suggests the waste of his humanity that a mendacious, oil-mad administration has wrought. It also suggests Jason's adaptability, the humanity he is able to bring to an alternative world apart from the America that Bush's poisonous presidency has befouled." -- edited from a review on the web |
