Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"A short, furious novel. . . . Articles of War presents a tough and visceral vision of war as 'a universe unto itself' and a moral crucible." -The New York Times"Articles of War stands out as a surprising achievement for our times, a story that pulses with a heart-tugging revelation." -The Bloomsbury Review"Short, spare, and beautiful, guided by a precision and a sweeping imaginative intelligence that reminds one intensely of Stephen Crane's Red Badge of Courage." -O, The Oprah Magazine"Extraordinary. . . . Articles of War explores the emotional turmoil of war, with the spin of an adolescent forced to reckon with the role he plays in an act of brutality and violence." -Rocky Mountain News
