Jarhead: A Marine's Chronicle of the Gulf War and Other Battles
- Author: Swofford, Anthony
- Publisher: Pocket Books
- Binding: Mass Market Paperbound
- Copyright: 2005
- ISBN-13: 9781416513407
- ISBN-10: 141651340X
The classic war memoir, now a major Hollywood film, directed by Sam Mendes and starring Jake Gyllenhall and Jamie Foxx.
Anthony Swofford's grandfather fought in WWII; his father fought in Vietnam; and he - a directionless, testosterone-battered teenager - became a scout/sniper in the marines and fought in the Gulf War. His account of that time is also part of a lineage - after Wilfred Owen, Norman Mailer, Michael Herr and Tim O'Brien, it brings the raw and searing tradition of soldiers' stories up to date.
A harrowing yet inspiring portrait of a tormented consciousness struggling for reconciliation and peace, JARHEAD is authentic, revelatory and brilliantly crafted.
