The book is about all one might seek to find in the work of a journalist describing an extended event. He is detailed and it seems factual. One might think that from the title this book concentrates exclusively on his injury in Ukraine, his long road of recovery, and his return to his family. That would be an undershoot. He unpacks what it means to be a journalist in all environments, especially those that are dangerous. In relating his earlier work as a journalist, he tells us how he grew up from one who sought thrills in very dangerous situations. It is interesting that he now counts his wife and daughters as most important in his life – not that they weren’t before – but how he realized his responsibility to them.
If it was possible, I would rate this book as a 10 but I’m limited by the form. I recommend this book without reservation.… (altro)
