About the book

The men of Alpha Company slog through the emptiness and dangers of their Vietnam tour in this haunting and acclaimed collection, which has the cumulative power and unity of a novel. The Vietnam war is central to The Things They Carried, but it is also a book about the human heart and the weight of the things we carry through our lives.
