Agent Orange Roundup is an exposé and poetic eulogy by two Marine combat veterans, both with a diagnosis of terminal cancer. These dynamic illustrations, poems and prose vividly capture the journey of wartime survival, the return to community, attempts to reintegrate, and the long reach of the God of War. Their Golden Years fall under the Shadow of stage four cancers and necessary reflection.
These Marines have come together at the end of life to share experiences, impressions and feelings with the America and pharma conglomerates that sent them into harm's way. This work is mature, insightful, and sometimes angry and brutal as they ponder the final destination all of us must one day visit. We are all connected more than the reader might suspect, as the hundred-year-old conglomerate that produces chemicals continues to poison our bodies and planet. There are 50 illustrations included in the book's 208 pages.
