The Watch
Joydeep Roy-Bhattacharya
At a stark outpost in the Kandahar mountain range, a team of American soldiers watches a young Afghan woman approach. She has come to beg for the return of her brother's body. The camp's tense, claustrophobic atmosphere comes to a boil as the men argue about what to do next. Taking its cue from the Antigone myth, this significant, eloquent novel re-creates the chaos, intensity and immediacy of war, and conveys the inevitable repercussions felt by the soldiers and their families--especially one sister.
