Purple Hearts: Back From Iraq
No issue involving the Iraq war has been more disturbing or 
under-covered than the stories and photographs of the thousands
of returning wounded soldiers. Nina Berman's book 'Purple Hearts: 
Back From Iraq' is an extraordinary accomplishment. She says of her 
subjects, "These soldiers -- all volunteer warriors -- have 
returned home to heal their wounds and consider life, forever 
scarred and changed." Her photographs can be seen at Redux Gallery, 
116 E. 16th Street in New York City from 10-6 M-F ( 212.253.0399)
through October 8th, and at her website, where the book
can also be ordered:
