Summary

In "Playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain," a young man's video game experience turns into a surreal exploration of his father's memories of war and occupation. Set in Kabul, "Return to Sender" follows two married doctors driven by guilt to leave the United States and care for their fellow Afghans, even when their own son disappears. A college student in the United States in "Hungry Ricky Daddy" starves himself in protest of Israeli violence against Palestine. And in the title story, "The Haunting of Hajji Hotak," we learn about a man code-named Hajji from the perspective of a government surveillance worker, who becomes entrenched in the immigrant family's life
