Descripción
Sumario:"In this remarkable portrait of what it means to be a mother in time of war, Susan Galleymore tells of her unusual step of traveling to Iraq to visit her son on a military base." "What she found there prompted her to continue that journey interviewing mothers in war zones including Iraq, Israel and the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Afghanistan and the United States. These powerful first-person accounts offer dramatic insight into the impact of war on families and communities in many countries." "Long Time Passing gets to the heart of extreme social experiences - war and warriors, mothers and children, communities and cultures - and explores the meaning of courage, fear, and leadership."--Jacket
