Victor Enns is not a soldier, yet he has been speaking with Canadian soldiers since 2007 through these poems, and directly in interviews with Canadian soldiers back from Afghanistan (from 2008 - 2009). Enns traveled to Kabul in May 2008 to get a sense of the landscape, the people and the Canadian mission in Afghanistan. Victor Enns has written a collection of voice poems that are relentless and genuine in telling soldiers stories. The title may imply that all soldiers have something to confess, yet few of us will ever have to shoulder the burden of taking another human life, or seeing the death and destruction common to all wars. Afghanistan Confessions is one of the first authentic literary accounts of this devastating war.
