What They Wanted Victor Henry

In WHAT THEY WANTED, Victor Henry's narrative poems offer a journey into a war he was drafted to fight, in a strange country for political reasons he knew nothing about. Once there he discovers the surrealistic qualities of war, its undercurrents, and how American GIs were really fighting for each other. Ten years later, after graduating from university, learning to think analytically and critically, he begins to question and find answers to the mysteries that still plague his soul.
