A satire set in Texas during America's war in Iraq that explores the gaping national disconnect between the war at home and the war abroad. Follows the surviving members of the heroic Bravo Squad through one exhausting stop in their media-intensive "Victory Tour" at Texas Stadium, football mecca of the Dallas Cowboys, their fans, promoters, and cheerleaders.

Exceptionally Good Read, but Tedious
submitted by sVfGI7Glt2pz7GZgVB90 on August 15, 2020, 10:56pm
This compassionate, funny, and imaginative novel is a book about Iraq and the soldiers fighting there. Set almost entirely within a Texas football stadium.
