Author: Leon Sharpe
Publisher: Routledge

More than any other contemporary collection, this startling work demands a visceral reaction to the agony and horror of the war in Iraq and war in general.

The main theme of war contrasts with a variety of unconventional observations on the concerns and vicissitudes of everyday life.
