Men I Have Met in Bed

Résumé du livre

"Ms. Asher is a good listener, and she has spent a lot of time with men in bed. This is a tale of the hospitalized servicemen that the author met while touring with the U.S.O.'s newly-formed volunteer Hospital Sketching Program (1943-1946). Artists in this program traveled to military hospitals and spent a week in each. Drawings provided entertainment and had a therapeutic value for the immobile G.I.'s who were unable to attend the usual U.S.O. shows because of disabling wounds and/or psychiatric problems. ... Transcripts of Asher's letters represent a substantial portion of the text. Letters and narrative are equally detailed, often humorous, and offer an on-the-scene perspective of her times."--Back cover
