In \u003ci\u003eThe War Comes with You: Enduring War in Life, Fiction, and Fantasy\u003c\/i\u003e, Stacey Peebles picks up where her groundbreaking first book, \u003ci\u003eWelcome to the Suck: Narrating the American Soldier's Experience in Iraq\u003c\/i\u003e, left off. Via careful readings of fiction, memoir, and poetry by writers such as Ben Fountain, Siobhan Fallon, Brian Turner, and Hassan Blasim, as well as recent superhero and Star Wars films, Peebles argues that, in the face of real and fantasy \"forever wars,\" things fall apart. Language, identities, bodies, and even the stories themselves fragment. These narratives suggest that people need not accept incoherence and there is a range of meaningful responses to the experience of everywhere, all-the-time war. Peebles illustrates what to do, that is, when war comes with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stacey Peebles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of South Carolina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.6lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.99h x 6.15w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643365152","brand":"University of South Carolina Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43273941418121,"sku":"9781643365152","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_bf9aedc8-9094-4854-abcc-c1b650425ef3.jpg?v=1736842691","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-war-comes-with-you-enduring-war-in-life-fiction-and-fantasy-9781643365152","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
