Here, Bullet


Brian Turner details his journey through the Afghan and Iraq wars in his book Here, Bullet. Each page is filled with a vivid account of scene that Turner himself experienced. Having earned his BA, MA, and MFA, he went into the US Army with a different perspective than most. His experiences gave him the inspiration to write poems, many by flashlight at night after a day of combat. I will examine the role of this book, as well focus on a few selected poems.

  1. Great picture, but please post a photo credit. Where did Turner get his degrees? Use italics for book titles. You might put a link to a web page where readers could find Turner's book, as well.
