Christine Sylvester is Professor of Political Science at the University of Connecticut, specializing in international relations, and professorial affiliate of the School of Global Studies at Gothenburg University. She has been the Swedish Research Council's Kerstin Hesselgren Professor for Sweden, recipient of an honorary degree in social sciences at Lund University, a Leverhulme fellow at SOAS, University of London, and a Humanities Institute fellow at the University of Connecticut. An International Studies Association eminent scholar of feminist theory and gender studies, she is also listed among Fifty Key Thinkers in International Relations. Her recent works related to this book include Art/Museums: International Relations Where We Least Expect It and War as Experience, as well as the edited books Masquerades of War and Experiencing War.

Christine Sylvester has produced a book that retheorizes how war is represented. She does so through a series of unconventional framings and stories that push the boundaries of what has traditionally been conceived of as war studies. It is a masterful example of the way narrative work can generate knowledge, with key insights on the individual experience of war inside and outside the traditional war theater.
