I’m currently reading The Things They Cannot Say, by Kevin Sites. It is a book about PTSD, primarily centered on wartime experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan. It is harrowing. PTSD is a well known condition in our culture, but the stories, told by the men themselves, of the cycle of killing, exhilaration, remorse, denial and acceptance, are…well, there are some emotions it is hard to find words for. It is not easy reading.
