Dispatches - Michael Herr

Descriere Dispatches - Michael Herr

He seems to have brought to this book the ear of a musician and the eye of a painter . . . the premier war correspondence of Vietnam.--Washington Post. The best book I have ever read on men and war in our time.--John le Carre. . . . Dispatches puts the rest of us in the shade.--Hunter S. Thompson. \nThe best book to have been written about the Vietnam War (The New York Times Book Review); an instant classic straight from the front lines. \nFrom its terrifying opening pages to its final eloquent words, Dispatches makes us see, in unforgettable and unflinching detail, the chaos and fervor of the war and the surreal insanity of life in that singular combat zone. Michael Herr's unsparing, unorthodox retellings of the day-to-day events in Vietnam take on the force of poetry, rendering clarity from one of the most incomprehensible and nightmarish events of our time. \n \nDispatches is among the most blistering and compassionate accounts of war in our literature.\n
