Nuevo destino (Redeployment) (Spanish Edition)

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Phil Klay's Redeployment takes readers
to the frontlines of the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan, asking us to understand
what happened there, and what
happened to the soldiers who returned.
Interwoven with themes of brutality and
faith, guilt and fear, helplessness and
survival, the characters in these stories
struggle to make meaning out of chaos.
In Redeployment a soldier who has had
to shoot dogs because they were eating
human corpses must learn what it is like
to return to domestic life in suburbia,
surrounded by people "who have no idea
where Fallujah is, where three members
of your platoon died." In "After Action
Report", a Lance Corporal seeks expiation
for a killing he didn't commit, in order
that his best friend will be unburdened. A
Morturary Affairs Marine tells about his
experiences collecting remains—of U.S.
and Iraqi soldiers both. A chaplain sees
his understanding of Christianity, and his
ability to provide solace through religion,
tested by the actions of a ferocious
Colonel. And in the darkly comic "Money
as a Weapons System", a young Foreign
Service Officer is given the absurd
task of helping Iraqis improve their
lives by teaching them to play baseball.
These stories reveal the intricate
combination of monotony, bureaucracy,
comradeship and violence that make
up a soldier's daily life at war, and the
isolation, remorse, and despair that can
