Just finished this beautifully written book by a Michener MFA graduate, Kevin Powers. Also a veteran who spent 2004-2005 in Iraq with the U.S. Army. Insight into the inner workings of a very young soldier told through the eyes of a poet. Insight into this endless war that has claimed so many souls. Will write the President later today and asked if he's read this. Will recommend.
Wow, can't even believe you finished it already.
ReplyDeleteDid you think-at times-it was too poetic for the experiences he was conveying? Just a thought, not certain I can answer.

I think that's his lens. The way he views the world. A touch of grace within this brave soldier.
