- "Voices in Wartime is an anthology of poetry, essays, and narratives based on interviews conducted for the film Voices in Wartime. Its pages contain not the words of politicians or pundits but rather, active-duty soldiers, veterans, torture victims, war correspondents, the families of the disappeared and the dead, poets, peace activists--compelling responses...to the experience of war."
