My teaser comes from page 182 to 183:
Men subjected to dehumanizing treatment experience profound wretchedness and loneliness and find that hope is almost impossible to retain. Without dignity, identity is erased. In its absence, men are defined not by themselves, but by their captors and the cirmcumstances in which they are forced to live.
Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading. Head on over to find out all about it, and how to join in!
Great teaser. I've seen nothing but great things about this book. This week my teaser is from The Iron Knight.
ReplyDeleteI wonder when I’ll get back into reading some non-fiction. I think the last was either Mao’s Last Dancer or Tokyo Vice.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser! I find myself needing to read only fictional books. Don't know when the last time I even opened a non-fiction book that wasn't a textbook for school!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog!
Happy Reading!
Have a GREAT day!
It is a great teaser, but sounds very sad also.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit to my TT.
How sad, but this book does sound interesting. If you get a chance, my teaser is here.
ReplyDeleteSounds really interesting! Thanks for stopping by my blog. :)

WOW! That's one heck of a teaser. I'll admit that I have not heard of this book - but then again I've been very focused in my reading... Looks like I need to broaden a bit.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

Sounds like a fascinating read! Thanks for stopping by this morning.

I love this book, haven't reviewed it yet because it is so hard to write a review for it. I don't think I will give it justice. My favorite book this year so far.
ReplyDeleteInteresting teaser!

I don't read a whole lot of non-fiction either, it's difficult for me to focus on it sometimes. Great teaser though!
ReplyDeleteMy teaser is from Prophecy, which I'm also holding a giveaway for.
I have this book, and am eager to read it. It sounds like it's a stunning story, and I look forward to reading your thoughts on it when you are finished with it. Great teaser today!
ReplyDeleteRead and thought so highly of Unbroken that I read Seabiscuit too.
ReplyDeleteNew blog for non-fiction "devotees" may be useful.

Heckuva subject - and your teaser illustrates that. But this book has gotten such stellar reviews, too! Are you in the majority? Is it amazingly good?
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic teaser. Now I understand whu Laura Hillenbrand gets such rave reviews for her writing.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to knoiw you're enjoying this book!
You know, I really need to read more non-fiction.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser! I hadn't heard about this book until now. Maybe I'll check it out.
Great teaser! Though the book sounds kind of sad. What do you think of it so far?
ReplyDeleteMy TT: http://lost-in-lit.blogspot.com/2011/07/teaser-tuesdays-2.html
That's a scary thought.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser. My teaser is here
Oh, that's a great teaser! I usually never even look twice at the non-fictions, but I have to take a look at this. I'm intrigued!
ReplyDeleteMy teaser can be found here! It's a tease for me as well, since it's a book I cannot wait to start!
This was a very profound teaser, thanks for sharing it with us! And thanks for coming by my blog yesterday :D

I am curious! The line-up at the library is long, though, so it might be a while.
