"Beautiful. . . . Prismatic. . . . A gestalt view of a soldier's journey from mutilation to recovery." --The New York Times Book Review
"A novel of concentrated ferocity and chilling accomplishments, tense and unflinching but alive to every nuance of feeling." --Hilary Mantel, author of Wolf Hall "Harrowing. . . . Powerful. . . . An unusually worthy addition to the growing body of veteran literature." --San Francisco Chronicle "One of the most intimate and detailed accounts of a wounded soldier's recovery ever committed to paper." --The Wall Street Journal "Behind this absorbing novel lies the indomitable spirit of Harry Parker. He has fought his way back from the darkest boundary of life to become a husband, father and, as this book shows, a writer of gifts and promise." --The Wall Street JournalHere is the unforgettable story of Captain Tom Barnes, whom we first meet as he is leading British troops in Afghanistan. We then meet two young Afghani boys—and the man who trains one of them to fight against the infidel invaders. Finally, there are the family and friends who radiate out from these lives: the people on all sides of a war where virtually everyone is caught up in something unthinkable. But this novel regards them not as they see themselves but as the objects surrounding them do: a helmet, a bag of fertilizer, a beer glass, dog tags—and a horrific improvised explosive device that binds them all together by blowing one of them apart. A work of extraordinary humanity and hope, Anatomy of a Soldier takes its place among the great novels that articulate the lives of soldiers. In the boom of an instant, we see things we’ve never understood so clearly before.
