5.0

A startling microscopic view of war and conflict, and the hyperfocus on the minor details that get blown away in the wind, and a directionless approach in the futile search to prove a buried truth. Every word is deliberately chosen, and I enjoyed the contrast of the two stories culminating in the two shocking moments at the end of each. Probably one of the most photographic books I have read in a while.
