Thank You For Your Service - Couverture souple

Soon to be a major film, written and directed by Jason Hall of American Sniper, and starring Amy Schumer.

New York Times-bestselling author David Finkel follows a US infantry battalion as they return home from Iraq and attempt to survive peace.

From the heartbroken wife who wonders privately whether her returned husband is going to get better or kill her, to the heroic victims with the fresh taste of gunmetal in their mouths, Finkel immerses his reader in the stories of families and of a society devastated by war.

Thank You for Your Service is shocking but always riveting, unflinching but deeply humane.

David Finkel is the author of The Good Soldiers, the bestselling, critically acclaimed account of the US surge during the Iraq War and a New York Times Best Book of the Year.

An editor and writer for The Washington Post, Finkel has reported from Africa, Asia, Central America, Europe, and across the United States, and has covered wars in Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq.

Among Finkel s honours are a Pulitzer Prize in 2006 and a MacArthur Foundation genius grant in 2012. He lives in the Washington, DC, area.
