Tim O'Neil had me enthralled from the start. This is my era and this book is outstanding.

Mandatory reading if you want to make sense of what is going on in our part of the world. Beautiful prose.

Un merveilleux ouvrage entre le roman, les nouvelles et la poésie. Sur la guerre du Viet Nam, certes mais qui pourrait décrire l'âme de tous ceux qui, un jour, se retrouvent une arme à la main, jeunes et ne sachant pas pourquoi ils sont là. Plus que tout, un chef d'oeuvre de la littérature mondiale.
L**O
Un libro dove forma e contenuto raggiungono una simbiosi davvero straordinaria; metamoderno, nella sua decostruzione del medium del "racconto di guerra," e al contempo nel suo utilizzo cosciente e puro. Lo stile è diretto, sommario, nell'asprezza distaccata della narrazione; la certezza espressiva nel racconto rende evidente più che mai l'ambiguità di tutto ciò che è la guerra, quella guerra, il coraggio, la paura, la fraternità dei soldati.

I haven't read this yet but it looks very interesting.
