He describes with ingenuous energy and authentic language that time and place.--<em>Library Journal</em></p><p>Perhaps as evocative of that awful time in Vietnam as the great fictions...a wild surreal account, at its best as powerful as Celine's darkling writing of World War One.--<em>Washington Post</em></p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>John Ketwig was sent to Vietnam in September 1967 and completed his tour a year later.
