Achilles in Vietnam
Book
Sage’s Take

Shay put veteran testimony next to the Iliad to make a case that changed how people talk about combat trauma, it is not weakness, it is what happens when the moral order you trusted collapses. It is a dense, literary read rather than a set of exercises, but for the right person it is the book that finally makes it make sense.
