Description: 251pp. paperback: Very Good+ [text is age browned; else VG+] The author's first book, a classic memoir of service in Vietnam in 1968 by a reluctant draftee. O'Brien later won a National Book Award for his 1979 novel, "Going After Cacciato. " read more
"This memoir presents O'Brien's REAL experiences in the Vietnam war. It's realistic and frank, but so gritty with its language and sex talk that it would be hard for me to recommend."
"Good intro to Vietnam combat lit for those who know little about the war from the foot soldier's perspective, but often gets mired in cliche. I'm a fan of O'Brien's writing generally, but Phil Caputo has this one beat by a mile. There are brief instances of the brilliance O'Brien displays in 'The ThingsThey Carried' - his discourse upon courage, for example, and the final pages about returning the the States - but most of the text comes off as standard Vietnam faire."
