Trade Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Thanh , Nguyen Trong - Photographs (illustrator). First Printing. 203 Pages. This book contains over 90 poems and more than 100 photographs taken by Rottmann and his North Vietnamese counterpart, Nguyen Trong Thanh between 1965 and 1993. It is a remarkable record of the author's struggle to come to terms with what Vietnam means. Rottmann's book requires us to redefine what it means to be American. Vietnam forced the author to recognize the otherness of other cultures, and brought him face-to-face with a people who were willing to fight bravely and die for ideals completely foreign to us. Those who fought and returned home from the war came back to discover a complete collapse of their moral identity. What they thought had been heroic battle, they came to realize, had actually been a dark absurdity perpetuated by the rich and powerful. It is a book that embraces the wholeness of what it means to be an American, and it does so not at the expense of the Vietnamese, but in a manner which humanizes them before our eyes in words and photographs. Rottmann's book is different from other books about the war in its inclusion of the enemies' perspective as heard in the voices poems. About the book Le Ly Hayslip wrote that describing the war from both the Vietnamese and American perspectives, this book offers a unique and complete story of this great tragedy. These voices advise us that to understand your enemy is to possibly understand a friend. Don't read this book unless you are prepared for an awakening you may not have anticipated.
