“Author Anna DeForest's work as a palliative care doctor qualifies her as well-positioned to write a literary fiction piece regarding one new doctor's experience practicing during the pandemic. Our Long Marvelous Dying shares human struggles those in healthcare encounter with the backdrop of a floundering marriage and dying houseplants. Our narrator finds exquisite beauty in the layers that are shed as we die and pushes back against the traditional way to care for those at the end of their life.”

“A story of humanity in the midst of the hell that is war, No Bullet Got Me Yet is largely comprised of correspondence from Fr. Kapaun and from those with whom he served. It details Kapaun’s childhood in Kansas, his early years as a beloved priest, and his time as an army Chaplain, most notably in the Korean War, during which he died as a POW. The actions of this playful and Christlike man, as described by his comrades, are stunning, heartbreaking, and most-deserving of sainthood. Though, just as Fr. Kapaun served soldiers of all religions, readers need not be Catholic to enjoy this story. The writing is at times fanciful and lacks a historian’s perspective, but I took what I needed with a grain of salt. Rick Adamson’s audio narration, however, couldn’t have been better. ”

The incredible story of the most decorated chaplain in US military history and his path to sainthood in the Roman Catholic Church.
Father Emil Kapaun, a humble priest, went far beyond the call of duty during World War II and the Korean War. Often found with the combat medics on the front lines, unarmed, ministering to the wounded, and known for his intense devotion to the soldiers whom he called “my boys,” Kapaun became the most decorated chaplain in US military history, awarded a Medal of Honor, the Distinguished Service Cross and the Legion of Merit.
But Father Kapaun’s leadership, bravery and selflessness don't end there. When the story of human history is over, evil, death, darkness—they don’t get the final word. It was Father Kapaun’s love for God that gave him the courage to lay down his life for his friends and for his country.
Writer John Stansifer has spent years interviewing veterans and ex-POWs. Coupled with other interviews or self-published war experiences, as well as material from the National Archives and rare access to thousands of unseen documents, No Bullet Got Me Yet unveils the compelling history of the life of Father Kapaun as related by his friends, family and fellow soldiers, as well as in his own words from the numerous letters he wrote from the 1930s all the way to the battlefields of the Korean War.
