Once in a great while, a talented writer survives combat to produce a work of literature. Rarest of all is a literary novel written by a blooded fighter pilot.
In the English language, perhaps two works qualify. One is Winged Victory by Victor Yeates. The other is The Hunters by James Salter.
You might have seen the 1958 film based on The Hunters, starring Robert Mitchum and Robert Wagner. It’s a good movie, but it has nothing to do with Salter’s story. This is a novel well worth reading.
