| Sommario/riassunto: | Sonja Yelich's Get Some is a daring departure from her previous, award-winning collection, Clung. It follows an American marine, Edgar, serving in Iraq, and the responses of his family back home to his tour of ?doody'. Yelich vividly contrasts his life with his family's, and serves up a whirlwind of perspectives on the war and contemporary American life from ?The Sopranos' to ?Black Hawk Down', YouTube to SUVs. The narrative of Edgar and his family begins to fragment through the book as the horror of war deepens ? a marine loses a leg and a plane ?breaks its nose on / Poor visibility in |
