Sobre este artículo
Boston: Houghton Mifflin/Seymour Lawrence, 1990. Signed on the title page by Tim O'Brien. First trade edition / First printing. Some have stated that the First Issue of this title was released with the jacket slightly mis-rolled so that some of the cover type is on the spine. This copy has the mis-rolled jacket. Black cloth spine, black paper-covered boards. Very fine in fine dust jacket. Listed as one of the top 25 books of the last 25 years by the editors of the New York Times Book Review.
Sinopsis
"The Things They Carried" is a powerful and moving collection of interconnected short stories about the experiences of American soldiers during the Vietnam War. Written by Tim O'Brien, a Vietnam veteran himself, the book explores the physical and emotional weight that soldiers carry with them into battle, and the lasting effects that war can have on individuals and society as a whole. Through a series of gripping and often heart-wrenching vignettes, O'Brien delves into themes of memory, trauma, loss, and the power of storytelling to make sense of our experiences. He also examines the complexities of human nature and the moral ambiguities of war, showing how soldiers are often forced to confront difficult ethical dilemmas and make impossible choices in the midst of chaos and violence.
