In Jesse Goolsby's powerful debut novel, I'd Walk with My Friends If I Could Find Them (Houghton Mifflin), three American soldiers haunted by their actions in Afghanistan search for absolution and human connection in family and civilian life. Goolsby casts backward and forward in time to track these unforgettable characters from childhood to parenthood, from redwood forests to open desert roads to the streets of Kabul. Hailed by Robert Olen Butler as a "major literary event," I'd Walk with My Friends If I Could Find Them is a debut of disarming eloquence and heart-wrenching wisdom.
