For hundreds of thousands of young Americans, after the shock of 9/11, there was Ramadi, Baghdad, Abu Ghraib, Fallujah... the war in Iraq. Then came the trauma. Olivier Morel gave them a voice in his compelling documentary On the Bridge. Walking Wounded is the story of Morel getting close to the young vets, their troubled experience and lives. So close he could not avoid living their trauma himself, seeing all too clearly their vision of the world after their gut-wrenching experiences. From torment to reflection, Morel and artist Mael relate through these vets the impossible return of those who do aspire vividly to get back to a normal life.

Cr�ticas:

"As the Iraq War recedes, works such as this serve as a much-needed prod to a society that s all too eager to put its misbegotten Middle East misadventure behind it." Gordon Flagg, "Booklist""

Rese�a del editor:

A gripping graphic novel illustrates the challenges of Iraq War veterans as well as their inspiring triumphs

After the shock of 9/11, for hundreds of thousands of young Americans there was Ar Ramadi, Baghdad, Abu Ghraib—the war in Iraq. Then came the trauma. From the torment of these vets to their reflections, Morel and artist Ma�l demonstrate the seemingly impossible return of those who aspire to get back to a normal life. The effort is huge; some can’t make it and others score their own victory by finally turning the corner.Walking Wounded is a parable for our country’s war sickness.
