MY BROTHER JOHNNY

Johnny Francesco D'Adamo

Translated by SIAN WILLIAMS

Johnny is a young airman who's flown dozens of missions. When he comes home from the war, his family and friends greet him as a hero. But Johnny doesn't feel like a hero. He's sick at the thought of the destruction he's caused to people in the villages over there. What's wrong with him? Why is he doing this? And when he sets up an anti-war protest in the centre of town, nobody wants to listen...

...Until the war comes home to them, that is.
