Description: Praise of From Sand and Time With a brilliant philosophical mind and a seemingly endless font of creativity, this former Marine--and front-line warrior in the Global War on Terror--pours a lifetime of personal anguish, edge-of-civilization experience, and deep reflection into his collection of poems. Turn off all the noise and spend quiet, meaningful moments with Rose's work of art." -- David Aretha , editor of World War II Chronicle and Nam: The Story of a Generation "Visceral, heartbreaking, funny, introspective, and unflinchingly honest, the poetry of David Rose authentically captures the warrior experience." -- Rich Ritter , author of Toil Under the Sun "Swinging words like hammers." -- Leo Jenkins , author of With A Pen Praise for No Joy "The refreshingly distinctive memoir is a mix of both situations plus a generous dose of partying--all in the service of trying to explain 'why so many Millennial men chose to experience War.' With less profound references--to dick tricks, poles and holes--Rose is a thinking person's Tucker Max, a guy who has fun philosophically." -- The Military Times "This is not a confessional, and it's not exactly anti-war. It's definitely not jingoistic, either. It's straight-talk about warrior culture." -- Dwarf + Giant
