Summary: Anthony Swofford, author of the bestselling memoir Jarhead, reads from and discusses his new book Hotels, Hospitals, and Jails: A Memoir. Following the success of Jarhead, Swofford assumed he had exorcised his military demons – but as every veteran knows, that isn’t exactly how it works. In these searing, courageous pages, Swofford struggles to make sense of what his military service meant, and to decide – after nearly ending it – what his life can and should become.
