Review:
"An M-1 tank of a novel, fast and powerful and dangerous...way nasty and blindingly funny." --Jay McInerney "This book may well find a place on the shelf with Joseph Heller's Catch-22.... It takes a fine novelist to tell such a sordid story so beautifully--and a brave one to hold out no hope for redemption but the jolting effect of a cold-eyed look at the truth." --The New York Times Book Review "Buffalo Soldiers rips a story of survival from the fearsome realm of the modern Army's barracks, trenches, and gutters. Military jargon becomes in-you-face narrative, punctuated by extremes of horror and humor.... This book is about now, and its present-tense urgency never flags." --Seattle Times/Post Intelligencer
Book Description:
Robert O'Connor's viciously funny novel is conclusive proof that peace is hell and the US Army is in its ninth circle... now a major film starring Joaquin Phoenix.
