What is Hooper's War : a Novel about?

Theres no prosthetic for a soul thats dying faster than its body. You have to heal it. And to do that, youre going to have to fight Hoopers War. In this powerful anti-war novel set in WWII Japan, Lieutenant Nate Hooper isnt sure hell survive the fight. And if he does make it home, he isnt sure he can survive the peace. Hes done a terrible thing, and struggles to resolve the mistake alongside an unrepentant Japanese soldier, and a Japanese woman trying to save both men. War can be about a lot of things but it is always about what happens to people. The characters face a decision that will forever define them not by their war against each other, but by their war against themselves. This is a tale of moral complexity, of decisions that last longer than people do. With allegorical connections to Americas wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the reverse chronology telling of Hoopers War turns a loss-of-innocence narrative into a tale of why that loss is inevitable. Think Matterhorn and The Things They Carried, crossed with Catch-22 and Slaughterhouse Five, some parts funny, some deadly serious.
