A review by tonythep
Redeployment by Phil Klay

4.0

To be honest, I wasn't particularly looking forward to reading a collection of stories about the Iraq war. With their realistic and sometimes brutal details, these stories by a former Marine captain and Iraq war veteran are not always easy to read. But ultimately they proved to be harder to stop reading. Klay gives voice to a variety of viewpoints through nuanced characters and prose that strikes a balance between bitter irony and real emotional depth.
