Thats a book of poems about the Iraq war written by a US soldier who served there. One of the reviews on the back says "The day of the first moonwalk, my father's college literature professor told his class, "someday they'll send a poet, and we'll find out what it's really like".....", well, they sent a poet to Iraq, or they sent a soldier and he came back a poet, whatever the case it's an amazing book. Puts the humanity back into the endless gruesome statistics coming out of Iraq.
