Summary

Coming Home is a heartrending and unforgettable examination of a critical period in our nation's history and an uncompromising, extraordinarily moving. When Marine Captain Bob Hyde leaves for Vietnam, his wife Sally volunteers at a local hospital. There she meets Luke Martin, a former sergeant whose war injury has left him a paraplegic. Embittered with rage and filled with frustration, Luke finds new hope and confidence through his growing intimacy with Sally. The relationship transforms Sally's feeling about life, love, and the horrors of war. And when, wounded and disillusioned, Sally's husband returns home, all three must grapple with the full impact of a brutal distant war that has changed their lives forever
