Title: When the Men Are Gone<\/em>
\nAuthor: Siobhan Fallon
\n<\/a>Publisher: Amy Einhorn Books\/Putnam
\n<\/a>Source: LibraryThing Early Reviewers<\/p>\n

The focus of the stories in You Know When the Men Are Gone <\/em>varies from an\u00c2\u00a0observer of military life to directly involved which keeps it interesting without rehashing the same story type.\u00c2\u00a0 Not all of the stories take place on Fort Hood though it is home base for the military families highlighted in the stories. \u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

I believe non-military readers can identify with the characters in the stories.\u00c2\u00a0 We’ve all felt at one time or another what it’s like to be shunned because of rumors, experienced the loss of a loved one,been overwhelmed by all the tasks we need to get done before the end of the day and wondered if our loved one is cheating on us.\u00c2\u00a0 Fallon captures those emotions and the ways they can make people do\u00c2\u00a0irrational things.<\/p>\n
