Books and Books, Coral Gables
DEXTER FILKINS, a foreign correspondent for The New York Times, has covered the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq since 2001. Like no other book, The Forever War (Knopf, $25) allows us a visceral understanding of today’s battlefields and of the experiences of the people on the ground, warriors and innocents alike. If you are really curious about what "victory" in Iraq or Afghanistan looks like, you should take advantage of hearing Dexter Filkins on his home turf in Miami. And if you can't go to hear him (I'll be there!), please read his book and buy it at Books and Books.
