Scott Anderson (author of the excellent Man Who Tried to Save the World) has a Memorial day piece in the NYT. It is the story of some soldiers from a National Guard unit sent into the Sunni triangle and their attempts to get back into domestic American life. He has a new novel as well. The book is a satirical look at Anglo-American policy in the Middle East.
