Beschreibung

This offer is for a set of "Redeployment" and "Missionaries" both of which have been SIGNED by Phil Klay on their respective title pages! 1) "Redeployment" (2014) - Winner of the 2014 National Book Award and Recipient of the John Leonard Prize by the National Book Critics Circle. "Redeployment" is poised to become a classic of the war writing tradition. Across nations and continents, Klay sets in devastating relief the two worlds a soldier inhabits: one of extremes and one of loss. Written with hard-eyed realism and stunning emotional depth, this work marks Phil Klay as one of the most talented new voices of his generation. Long-listed for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Fiction. 2) "Missionaries" (2020) - The author's debut novel where he examines the globalization of violence through the ineterlocking stories of four characters and the conflicts that define their lives. A group of Colombian soldiers prepares to raid a drug lord's safe house on the Venezuelan border. They're watching him with an American-made drone, about to strike using military tactics taught to them by U.S. soldiers who honed their skills to lethal perfection in Iraq.
