Melanie O'Loughlin of Unity Books reviews Places and Names by Elliot Ackerman, which is published by Allen Lane.

A new kind of war reporting, written by a former US Marine who saw combat in Afghanistan and Iraq. A decade later, Ackerman returns to live in the Middle East - and takes the time to ask his former enemies what the war and its aftermath was like for them.
