"WAR" is a non-fiction book by Sebastian Junger that explores the real-life experiences of soldiers fighting in Afghanistan. The author, who spent a year with a US Army platoon in the country, describes not only the physical dangers that soldiers face but also the psychological toll that war takes on them. The book looks specifically at the dynamics of combat, including the sense of brotherhood that develops among soldiers, the adrenaline-fueled fear and excitement of battle, and the heartache of losing friends and comrades. Through interviews with soldiers and vivid descriptions of life on the front lines, Junger provides a raw and honest look at the reality of modern warfare.
