Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Veterans of War, Veterans of Peace is a harvest of creative, redemptive storytelling-nonfiction, fiction, and poetry-spanning five wars and written by those most profoundly affected by it. This poignant collection, compiled from Kingston's healing workshops, contains the distilled wisdom of survivors of five wars, including combatants, war widows, spouses, children, conscientious objectors, and veterans of domestic abuse. Veterans of War, Veterans of Peace includes accounts from people that grew up in military families, served as medics in the thick of war, or came home to homelessness. All struggle with trauma - PTSD, substance abuse, and other consequences of war and violence.

The contributors to this volume are part of this community of writers working together to heal the trauma of war through art. Maxine Hong Kingston's books- The Woman Warrior, China Men, Tripmaster Monkey, The Fifth Book of Peace, and others-have won critical praise and national awards. President Bill Clinton presented her with a National Humanities Medal in 1997.…
