Status Updates From Dispatches

Full disclosure, I’ve had this book with me since grade 11. We were required to write a report on a book of our choosing, picked from a list. I picked Dispatches. Its synopsis intrigued me the most from all the other titles, which included classics. I did not read it at all. I Sparknotes’d the paper. This book resurfaced recently as it was described to me as “the most poetic book written about modern war.”
