{"product_id":"looking-for-war-stories","title":"Looking for War: Stories","description":"A debut collection of short fiction from the author of the novel Leaving the Land, a Pulitzer Prize finalist. Douglas Unger's fiction is sharp-edged and compelling, whether he's exploring his own boyhood on the street (\"Autobiography\") or the life of a student lab assistant who bonds with a burnt-out rhesus monkey (\"Leslie and Sam\") or the strange fate of a young woman who returns from a second honeymoon on a paradisiacal Brazilian island to succumb to a mysterious disease (\"Tide Pool\"). The collection is capped by the powerful novella \"Looking for War,\" where a would-be war correspondent, whose older brother is a shell-shocked Vietnam vet, stumbles upon his own war in a grisly five-minute action in the jungles of Paraguay. Douglas Unger is as sensitive and knowledgeable about matters of the heart as he is about war.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0865381119\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0865381119.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Unger, Douglas\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
