A classic work of American literature that has not stopped
changing minds and lives since it burst onto the literary scene, The Things They Carried is a
ground-breaking meditation on war, memory, imagination, and the redemptive
power of storytelling.
The Things They
Carried depicts the men of
Alpha Company: Jimmy Cross, Henry Dobbins, Rat Kiley, Mitchell Sanders, Norman
Bowker, Kiowa, and the character Tim O’Brien, who has survived his tour in
Vietnam to become a father and writer at the age of forty-three.
Taught everywhere from
high school classrooms to graduate seminars in creative writing it has become
required reading for any American and continues to challenge readers in their
perceptions of fact and fiction, war and peace, courage and fear and longing.
