Produktbeschreibung
My Father's Name Is War is a veteran's reckoning with memory, disability, and the empire that shaped them. In the tradition of The Things They Carried, this debut short story collection refuses to sanitize conflict or glorify sacrifice. The Global War on Terror did not take place. These violent hallucinations reveal what did. * A futuristic weapons program uses nostalgia and shame to enforce battlefield obedience. * Virtual reality therapy rekindles a longing for wartime in a broken veteran. * A South Korean magnate's passion project threatens to rewrite the logic of global power. These nine transmissions include fictions, fever dreams, and fragments of philosophy that trace the psychic and political debris left behind by protracted conflict. Drawing on science fiction, horror, poetry, and psychological realism, Bauder examines the machinery of the security state and the human lives caught in its gears. For fans of literary fiction, complex narratives, and postwar reckonings.
Autorenporträt
Bauder is the designation of a U.S.-based writer and veteran of the War in Afghanistan. Their fiction dwells at the edges of dissociative literature, conjoining hyperreality and the blasphemy of national myth. Their first collection, My Father's Name Is War: Collected Transmissions, appeared in February 2025. A debut novel is forthcoming.
