Description
|
|
|
|
Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award winner William Styron was best known for such ambitious works of morally complex fiction as The Confessions of Nat Turner and Sophie's Choice. Styron also created personal but no less powerful tales based on his real-life experiences as a U.S. Marine. The Suicide Run collects five of these meticulously rendered narratives, including "Elobey, Annobón, and Corisco," published here for the first time, and the title story, depicting the surreal experience of being conscripted a second time, after World War II, to serve in the Korean War.
