Description

This book presents a collection of interconnected stories set during the Vietnam War. It explores the experiences of soldiers, focusing on what they carry physically and emotionally. The narrative follows recurring characters as they navigate fear, loss, and memory. Through these stories, the author examines the impact of war on the human psyche and the burdens individuals carry throughout their lives. The themes of trauma and storytelling highlight how personal experiences shape identity and the struggle for redemption in the aftermath of conflict.
