19岁的比利·林恩所在的B班,因为在伊拉克战场上一次阴差阳错的小胜利成为国民英雄,《时代》周刊称这场发生在安萨卡运河的战役是美国反恐之战的焦点,随军记者拍摄的新闻纪录片在电视台反复播放,布什政府召他们回国授勋展示伊战成果。在政府与媒体的双重推动下,为期两周的“凯旋之旅”中,民众热情一浪高过一浪,商业精英各显神通不想放过赚钱良机,不同人群藉着爱国主义达成狂欢。劫后余生的比利,在与各色人物的接触和对生命本质的追问中,厌恶悲哀政治之虚伪与公众之愚昧,陷入前所未有的迷惘。小说主体故事发生在德州体育场,在达拉斯牛仔队迎战芝加哥熊队比赛间隙,B班参与了由“真命天女”主导的中场表演。在万众沸腾的中心,精神恍惚的比利,最想要的是女人的温情与一场淋淳尽致的性爱。
