Preview Voices from the Front: Turkish Soldiers on the War with the Kurdish Guerrillas

Description:
These riveting first-hand accounts of Turkish soldiers who have fought in the internal war against Kurdish guerillas speak to universals: the shock of entering military life and the traumas of warfare; the changes in personality and relations with family and friends; the lingering emotional effects of violence; and the difficulties in returning to the ''real world.''
