A War Zone of the Soul

Dr. W. Lee Warren's life as a neurosurgeon in a trauma center began to unravel long before he shipped off to serve the Air Force in Iraq in 2004. When he traded a comfortable if demanding practice in San Antonio, Texas, for a ride on a C-130 into the combat zone, he was already reeling from months of personal struggle.

At the 332nd Air Force Theater Hospital at Joint Base Balad, Iraq, Warren realized his experience with trauma was just beginning. In his 120 days in a tent hospital, he was trained in a different specialty - surviving over a hundred mortar attacks and trying desperately to repair the damages of a war that raged around every detail of every day. No place was safe, and the constant barrage wore down every possible defense, physical or psychological.

One day, clad only in a T-shirt, gym shorts, and running shoes, Warren was caught in the open while round after round of mortars shook the earth and shattered the air with their explosions, stripping him of everything he had been trying so desperately to hold on to.

Warren's story is an example of how a person can go from a place of total loss to one of strength, courage, and victory. Whether you are in the midst of your own crisis of faith, failed relationship, financial struggle, or illness, you will be inspired to remember that how you respond determines whether you survive - spiritually, emotionally, and sometimes physically.

It is the beginning of a long journey home.

Highly comical
Format: Paperback
This book is simply amazing. I have stopped, wondering about comics and begun mastering them. The author is always amazing. I’ve read most of her work and I can hardly highly recommend them. especially her novel Cruddy it was the best!

This Book Will Make You Happy
Format: Paperback
This book is beautiful, inspiring and uplifting. I happen to be someone who never drew very but wants to draw again. It's perfect for me. However, even if I didn't have an interest in drawing, the art, stories and information are compelling and warm. I truly believe anyone will enjoy this book. I first learned of the amazing Lynda Barry when I was a kid reading Ernie Pook's Comeek. I have since read everything Lynda Barry has ever published - and every bit is a treasure. There is a kindness, wisdom, openness and compassion in everything she does. For me, her work is like a tonic and a salve. This book comes to me at the perfect time - the most painful and difficult year of my life. It is powerful and soothing. This is a work you will love and go back to again and again.

Such a fun book
Format: Paperback
If you are looking to get back into drawing or just spark creativity, this is the perfect book to get started with. It's not necessarily a direct instruction book - so you need to be patient and EXPLORE. The only thing that would make it more perfect is if someone came up with a deck of attendance card prompts for when you run out of your own ideas!
