OLDER FICTION
Wulffson, Don

Soldier X

(2) YA Erik Brandt is sixteen, uncommitted to the Nazi cause, and "sick with terror" when he is drafted into the German army and immediately sent to the Eastern Front. Wounded behind enemy lines, he assumes the identity of a Russian soldier. Erik's first-person narrative records battlefield sequences with an unflinching--and occasionally numbing--brutality, in a story notable for its unusual perspective.
