Añadir al carritoHardback. Condición: Good. The Sergeant (1958) By Dennis Murphy | Frederick Muller ISBN: none (back when men were catalogued by rank, not numbers) Condition: Good (disciplined, a bit battleworn) Offered by: Crappy Old Books This is The Sergeant , a 1950s novel about that most dangerous creature in any army: not the general, not the enemy, but the career NCO who?s seen too much, been promoted too slowly, and now has absolute power over a small patch of universe and several terrified subordinates. Dennis Murphy plants you in the world of barracks, parade grounds and smoky bars, where: officers drift in and out like weather, privates rotate, complain and disappear, and the sergeant is the immovable object in the middle of it all ? part mentor, part bully, part tragic hero, depending which side of inspection you?re on. What?s going on inside? Without spoiling every dressing-down and catastrophic weekend pass, you?re signing up for: A close-up look at peacetime soldiering ? that awkward interval when the war is over, the uniforms are still on, and nobody?s quite sure what they?re training for . A unit full of raw recruits and jaded regulars , all orbiting the same gravel-voiced centre of gravity. The Sergeant himself: professional to the bone haunted by earlier campaigns increasingly aware that the world beyond the parade square is changing faster than he can shout at it. Long days of routine, boredom and petty rule-enforcement, punctuated by moments when you suddenly remember this is a man who knows exactly how close the line between order and chaos really is. Murphy isn?t writing a flag-waving adventure; he?s taking apart the psychology of command at ground level. It?s about power, pride, loyalty, fear and the strange intimacy of being shouted at daily by the same man. The tone Think: Less ?boys? own war yarn? More quietly brutal character study with uniforms. The humour is dry, the dialogue sharp, and the mood often somewhere between: ?What on earth are we doing here?? and ?God help us if this man ever quits, because he?s the one actually holding everything together.? It?s the sort of 1950s novel that assumes you can handle moral ambiguity and still appreciate a well-executed inspection scene. This particular copy From the photo and the listing: Condition: Good ? structurally sound, but with that faded reddish cloth that says ?I?ve spent decades on real bookshelves, not in climate-controlled captivity.? The spine shows some sunning and a few small marks ? cosmetic field scars only. Corners and edges are bumped in a mild, non-catastrophic way, like a sergeant who?s been around a few too many barracks, but still stands square. Inside: pages intact, perfectly readable, ready for another tour of duty. No dust jacket, no nonsense. Just a solid mid-century hardback that looks exactly like the sort of book a bored corporal might have tucked into a kit bag. Why you might actually want this You enjoy military fiction that?s more about people than explosions . You?re fascinated by the peculiar ecosystem of rank, ritual and resentment that lives between ?Yes, sir? at the top and ?Why am I here?? at the bottom. You like books that quietly dismantle macho myths by showing what life is actually like for the man doing the shouting. You have a soft spot for slightly worn, uniform-coloured hardbacks that radiate ?1950s serious novel? energy. This isn?t a glossy modern thriller; it?s an older, tighter, more human thing ?the sort of book that leaves you wondering whether you feel sorry for the recruits, or for the sergeant who can?t stop being what the system made him. Condition vs. Command Physically: Good ? worn at the edges, firm at the spine, very much like its title character. Literarily: a strong piece of mid-century realism, perfectly suited to anyone who prefers their war stories set after the medals, when all that?s left is the job. Issued (without parade) by Crappy Old Books , where the ranks are fictional, the cloth is faded, the condition is Good, and the sergea.
