Martyrs and Holymen Larry Fondation

With Martyrs and Holymen, Larry Fondation continues to record gritty stories of city life. In his fifth book of "L. A. Stories" he has expanded the scope to include the experiences of Angeleno soldiers on duty in Iraq and Afghanistan and also returning home. When Fallujah is transplanted to Southern California, "survival" can take many meanings, all of them translating into four letter words. Fondation details the scars left by that which does not kill us, and tests the notion that we really are left stronger by the experience.
