COM教授和明矾创作澳门威尼斯人注册战争精神创伤的图画小说


在简·埃格里森(Jan Egleson)的记忆中,一道看不见的屏障将他的父亲与世界隔离开来。 作为一名第二次世界大战的海军战斗老兵,“他孤僻、易怒,无法真正维持人际关系,”埃格里森说,他是一名电影制作人,也是传播学院实践、电影和电视副教授。 他的治疗尝试都失败了,直到父亲去世,他的儿子在阅读他的论文时,才意识到自己患有创伤后应激障碍。
Egleson knew a bit about this demon, having directed 荣誉勋章抹布, a 1975 play about the illness. His family tragedy, plus the journalism experiences of Brian David Johnson (COM’05) covering the 伊拉克战争’s fallout on small-town New Hampshire, compelled the two to team up to create the graphic novel 《地狱归来 (Candlewick, 2017). Illustrated by 莱拉Milevski, the book introduces readers to PTSD’s psychic ravages on an Army dog handler named Liz. The two authors will be at 布鲁克林Booksmith tonight, February 15, at 7 p.m., to talk about their novel.
