About the Author:
Michael Hastings spent two years reporting in Iraq as Newsweek's youngest-ever war correspondent. He has written four cover stories for Newsweek International and been published in Slate, Salon, Foreign Policy, The Los Angeles Times, filing stories from such locations as Israel, Gaza and the West Bank, Kurdistan, Vietnam, and Afganistan. He is now a contributing editor at GQ and lives in Vermont.
From AudioFile:
Yes, there's an exciting story here. But the author is not the narrator to convince you of that. His delivery sounds disconnected from the drama of his memoir. He writes of how at age 25 he was sent by NEWSWEEK to cover the Iraq War. His girlfriend, Andi, joined him there and, later, was killed in a botched kidnapping. The story recounts their efforts to keep their love alive in the midst of violence and death. Their fear is extreme; their passion moving and intense. But Hastings's narration reflects none of these. His powerful dialogue is expressed in monotones so that he sounds almost indifferent as he tells of the raw events that ripped apart his life. S.W. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
