Limb Land offers a collection of short stories connected by the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Presenting a heartfelt, emotional journey, one story details the plight of Army Specialist Spencer, who, while in the ICU of an Iraqi field hospital, requests to “see off ” his detached leg one final time. He’s told policy would not allow him to bid this unusual “farewell.” Groggy but coherent, he requests his detached leg from another member of personnel, who contemplates the soldiers request.
Then there’s the story of MPO Dugan Taylor, born into wealth but desiring to serve his country just as his father had in Vietnam. After his face is disfigured by insurgent gunfire, he comes home only to have his temperamental and transient wife walk out on their volatile marriage.
A family struggles with a cancer diagnosis; a documentary filmmaker perishes, but leaves a legacy supported by the international film industry. A lieutenant experiences an incredible reunion; one he could not have dreamed possible…
Limb Land presents heartfelt stories that evoke our gratitude to all who have sacrificed for these wars.
