The Things They Carried

En savoir plus sur le livre

"Since it burst onto the literary scene over twenty-five years ago, The Things They Carried has not stopped changing minds and lives, challenging readers in their perceptions of fact and fiction, war and peace, courage and fear and longing. It is an unparalleled Vietnam testament and a major literary achievement. It depicts the men of Alpha Company, who carried love letters, mine detectors, Bibles, and each other. And if they made it home, they carried images of a nightmarish war that haunts our history and echoes into our present." -- From publisher's description
