500 "Inspired in part by the book Where war lives, by Paul
Watson."
520 "Mogadishu, 1993. Paul is a Canadian photojournalist who
is about to take a picture that will win him the Pulitzer
Prize. Princeton, the present day, Dan is an American
writer who is struggling to finish his play about ghosts.
Both men live worlds apart but a chance encounter over the
airwaves sparks an extraordinary friendship that sees them
journey from some of the most dangerous places on earth to
the depths of the human soul. Flying from Kabul to the
Canadian High Arctic, The Body of an American sees two
actors jump between more than thirty roles in an
exhilarating new form of documentary drama. It urgently
places these two men's battles - both public and private -
against a backdrop of some of the world's most iconic
images of war."--Oberon Books website
