Title: Masterpiece of language --a dream, a nightmare, a reality
Product review: I picked up this novel on a whim because the title caught my eye-- I never knew I would pick up a masterpiece of the English language. Once I started reading, I was mesmerized by O'Brien's unbelievable skill and language. The stories all possess a dreamy quality that blends the truth and fiction--ambiguity. His imagery is unsurpassed, I haven't read any other authors that reflect his same writing style..revolutionary. Each story is a nightmarish gem, this book evoked every possible emotion from me while I read. O'Brien makes Vietnam's madness and confusion come alive. Sometimes I felt as if O'Brien was actually talking to me, over coffee or something. Each story is etched so clearly in my mind. I know that everytime I reread this novel, the Alpha Company will become more than fictional charactars...but anecdotes of every kind of person in this world.
