ABSTRACT
More than any other contemporary collection, this startling work demands a visceral reaction to the agony and horror of the war in Iraq and war in general. The immediacy of Thou Shalt Not Kill Unless Otherwise Instructed calls to mind Wilfred Owen's words, "Above all, the author not concerned with Poetry. His subject is war". The main theme of war contrasts with a variety of unconventional observations on the concerns and vicissitudes of everyday life. This chapter talks about President sat with his boots propped up on the desk in the Oval Office, somewhere between somnolence and waking. Colonel Sands stood on the far side of the desk reading aloud from a classified document. The left side of his mouth quivered from time to time. The President wants a full report on Justin Case". Sands returned to the Oval Office with an official record on Lieutenant Justin Case.
