Next stop: Vietnam

The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien is a collection of short stories drawn from O'Brien's experiences during the war in Vietnam. The book is both a series images that brings to the reader the vivid realities of war and a statement about writing and the nature of storytelling.

Join us for the discussion of The Things They Carried after school on February 13.

Question: Did he or didn't he kill the man with the star-shaped hole where his eye had been?
