A novel written by a veteran of the war in Iraq, The Yellow Birds is the harrowing story of two young soldiers trying to stay alive.
"The war tried to kill us in the spring." So begins this powerful account of friendship and loss. In Al Tafar, Iraq, twenty-one-year old Private Bartle and eighteen-year-old Private Murphy cling to life as their platoon launches a bloody battle for the city. Bound together since basic training when Bartle makes a promise to bring Murphy safely home, the two have been dropped into a war neither is prepared for.
In the endless days that follow, the two young soldiers do everything to protect each other from the forces that press in on every side: the insurgents, physical fatigue, and the mental stress that comes from constant danger. As reality begins to blur into a hazy nightmare, Murphy becomes increasingly unmoored from the world around him and Bartle takes actions he could never have imagined.
With profound emotional insight, especially into the effects of a hidden war on mothers and families at home, The Yellow Birds is a groundbreaking novel that is destined to become a classic.

具体描述
读后感
确实是一部好作品。它的主题也是“寻找”二字：寻找战争的意义，同时也是对自己灵魂的寻找。小说是一个主线明确的一气呵成的故事，文字透露着文艺的气息，越往后却越压抑，的确是现实主义的小说流派。战争始终是残酷的，需要避免的。可是，它依旧在被继续着，在扰乱当地的生活...
评分溯流而上，战争的疯狂把人物塑造成不同的模样，恐惧越深，越接近精神世界的尽头，总而言之，深刻的寓意，宏大的场面，再加上震撼人心的观后感，使得《黄鸟》真正成为了一部登峰造极的战争史诗小说。即使对不喜好的战争题材，我也感受到了作家的用心和对人性的品味。这一点上，...
评分 评分 评分看完以后觉得很……一种很难形容的感觉。我一直坚持，在某种意义上讲，战争其实是没有赢家的，不管最后的结果是什么，战争的哪一方都会失去很多。 这本书从美军角度讲故事，在伊拉克，即使地形不熟悉也没有人民战争的海洋，理论上说，美军也占有优势。一个强大国家的配备完整训...
用户评价
战争是残酷的，对于军人的心理创伤常人无法想象。可惜的是军人为了国家的牺牲往往只是源于politician的贪婪。
评分我以前认识的VET，不论去没去过IRAQ，都认为那里是个ＳＨＩＴＨＯＬＥ。
评分我的同学里面有两位是我知道从阿富汗战场上回来的陆军，其中一位是拆弹部队的，服役8年，还有一位好像是sniper。我跟他们都不熟，他们平时笑的时候跟普通人没有什么区别，但是偶尔安静的时候，会露出那种作者Powers的神情，那是一种不可言喻的悲伤绝望，带着可怕的冷静甚至无所谓的漠然。
评分能把战场写的这么郭敬明也是不多见
评分就不要妄想诗人能给你写出什么故事性
