520			_a"Going West" by Basil King is a novel written in the early 20th century, specifically during the time following World War I. The book explores themes of duty, sacrifice, and the profound impact of war on personal lives, reflecting the experiences of American soldiers during that tumultuous period. The story follows Lester, a civilian and aspiring broker who is suddenly called to serve in World War I. As he navigates the brutal realities of combat, he reflects on his life, including his engagement to Molly Dove, who waits for him back home. Deeply influenced by his family’s military history, Lester finds himself grappling with his own identity amidst the chaos of war. After enduring harrowing experiences on the battlefield, he confronts the fate of his life and the consequences of violence, ultimately exploring the nature of existence and the ties that bind people across life and death. The narrative addresses the emotional weight carried by those left behind, particularly Molly, who, despite sorrow, seeks a connection to Lester after his death, leading to a powerful resolution about love, loss, and hope beyond mortality.
