'The Iraq War's answer to Catch-22' Publisher's Weekly
David Abrams served in the U.S. Army for twenty years, and was deployed to Iraq in 2005 as part of a public affairs team. His stories have appeared in Esquire, Narrative and other literary magazines.
In this wickedly funny novel, Abrams sees right past the
self-aggrandizing illusions and comforting fairytales that tuck the
US in at night.
*Guardian*
As funny, disturbing, heartbreaking and ridiculous as war
itself
*New York Times Book Review*
Brilliant and excruciating
*The Times*
Abrams has a definite comic talent and a lively turn of phrase
*Guardian*
[Hilarious]... It is the rare writer – indeed, the rare person –
who can step outside of himself and see with cold clarity the humor
and pathos of his situation and then bring the reader to the same
understanding. David Abrams is such a writer
*Karl Marlantes, author of Matterhorn*
