Abstract
Brave, He Died of His Wounds
and Other Stories
David Fleming
Brave, He Died of His Wounds and Other Stories is a collection of short fiction that examines some of the pieties of contemporary American culture. Among those pieties are the sanctity of life, the sanctity of marriage, and the sanctity of US militarism. It is firmly rooted in the fifteen years before and after September 11, 2001, and the characters in these stories struggle to carve out ethical positions in relation to marriage, reproductive futurity, democracy, individualism, and global imperialism. While those discourses are important to the stories that follow, my primary goal is to turn my own ruminations about them into compelling plots, characters, and images.
