Rave Review from Margot Norris

“The materials in Bombshells: War Stories and Poems by Women on the Homefront are truly unique in the large archive of writings on twentieth- and twenty-first century wars. The authors of these memoirs, short stories, narratives, and poems are women with an intimate connection to soldiers of the conflicts to which the U.S. has contributed its military force during the various decades of the last century. Poignantly, unsentimentally, bravely, they reveal and explore the emotional costs that constitute their own form of heroism when soldiers are sent to combat.”
