Books by Johanna Skibsrud

The Sentimentalist
A debut novel by a Canadian author about the devastating effect war (Vietnam) can have on someone and his family. When her own life falls apart, a daughter tries to learn the truth about her father before his memory fails. She shares a house with her father and the father of his friend who was killed where she has happy childhood memories. Skibsrud is a war veteran's daughter and brings her understanding to the novel.
