    What I'm Up To

    My book

    Michael Hastings Baghdad book“Each war, it is said, produces its own literary classics. All Quiet on the Western Front for WWI, Catch-22 for WWII, Dispatches for the Vietnam War. So where is the masterpiece from the current Iraq War? The outstanding book by Michael Hastings…is certainly a candidate.”
    -Sydney Morning Herald

    “Soul-shattering.” -The Washington Post
