Synopsis
In this novel, Kien, once in the infantry at Hanoi, must now retrieve and bury the dead bodies from one of the bloodiest battles of the Vietnam War. As he does so, he reflects on his youth, and then moves on to a career as a writer in Hanoi, trying to make sense of the war itself and the terrible savageries he has witnessed. This is the first novel of the Vietnam War published in the West that is told from the point of view of the North Vietnamese.
