It’s not necessarily the case that a heart beats less robustly when it’s transplanted, but Wright’s creation has become more attenuated with each step it has taken-from magazine article to book to TV miniseries. “Generation Kill,” a new miniseries on HBO, is based on a 2004 book by Evan Wright, which is an expanded version of a three-part series that was published in Rolling Stone, in 2003, about the time Wright spent embedded with a Marine battalion in Iraq.
