You Forgot About Me: Five Interconnected Stories of World War II

By Kevin Haslam

You Forgot About Me is a cycle of five interconnected stories unfolding over the final six months of World War II, moving from the H rtgen Forest into wards, trains, and hometown streets where "home" feels like a rumor. Captain Norman Watt-composer turned infantry officer-can't reconcile leadership with slaughter, and his refusal to harden becomes its own liability.

As the fighting recedes, the damage doesn't: a nurse tries to salvage what war has unscrewed from the human spirit; an officer's mind turns the world into a phonograph of repetition; a battle-fatigued witness writes like a man trying to scatter proof into the wind; and a disfigured veteran returns to a Kentucky that has learned to profit without bleeding.

Dedicated to the men who fought in the Battle of H rtgen Forest, this collection doesn't argue motives. It examines the cost-what's carried back in the quiet, and what the quiet carries forward.
