grand, intimate, and joyous.” —New York Times Book ReviewFrom the PEN/Hemingway Award-winning author of the critically acclaimed short story collection, Brief Encounters with Che Guevara, comes Billy Lynn' s Long Halftime Walk ( “The Catch-22 of the Iraq War” —Karl Marlantes).

Three minutes and forty-three seconds of intensive warfare with Iraqi insurgents—caught on tape by an embedded Fox News crew—has transformed the eight surviving men of Bravo Squad into America’ s most sought-after heroes.

Now they’re on a media-intensive nationwide tour to reinvigorate public support for the war.

On this rainy Thanksgiving Day, the Bravos are in Texas Stadium, slated to be part of the halftime show.
