Excellent book. It is a 'memoir' described by author: "Memoirs are our love letters and our letters of apologies, both. They hold our few gems, the noteworthy lessons of our journeys.' I liked the book because of this--it's the Vietnam War from all perspectives as the citizenry both south and north experienced it, as well as a very personal story of one man's growing up within that life. So sad at times. But well worth the read.

Very well written from a Vietnamese perspctive which includes the French occupation, the Japanese invasion, and the Vietnam War.
