My mom came to me after she'd read Unbroken and told me I needed to read it. I'd done a research project on internment camps in America during World War II and presented on the cruelties on American citizens of different nationalities. Unbroken is a story of the other side, about the bombardier on the plane The Green Hornet--Louis Zamperini--and how he is captured by Japanese forces, imprisoned, and later freed.
Violence: This is a war story, so expect some deaths, injuries, etc. Fellow pilots and flight crew die. While imprisoned, Zamperini is beaten, starved, and tortured. After freedom, he has murderous thoughts over his captors.
Swearing: I don't remember much anything other than damn, hell, and a few other milder words that some people may find offensive. It isn't overwhelming.
Sexual Content: Not a worry, though men in barracks together during flight training post pictures of women on their bathroom walls.
