The Things They Carried
Tim O'Brien
A good war story....
"War is hell, but that's not the half of it, because, war is also mystery and terror and adventure and courage and discovery and holiness and pity and despair and longing and love..war is hell. As a moral declaration the old truism seems perfectly true, and yet because it abstracts, because it generalizes, I can't believe it with my stomach. Nothing turns inside. it comes down to gut instinct. A true war story, if truly told, makes the stomach believe".(O'Brien 78)
