The River by Cunien (PG-13)
Fandom: BAND OF BROTHERS
Pairing: Gen, Roe and Luz
Author on LJ:
cunien
Author Website: Band of Brothers fic in Memories
Why this must be read: First off, Cunien has one of the most beautifully original writing voices in the fandom: imagistic, surrealistic, and always straining to move beyond physical description into something more. She's written a good deal of fic, all of which is worth reading, but I chose this story as representative of not only her style but of two of her favorite characters. It's a poetic and profound look at the experience of Bastogne--how Roe comes to be the medic that he is, how Luz learns about battlefield luck and faith, and what happens when their roles are reversed. And damn, but it's a compelling read.
Truth is all around now. Truth is flowing from him in sickly-sweet congealed lumps, spreading out through the snow like a halo. This is real. This is truth.
