Before writing his award-winning
Going After Cacciato
, Tim O'Brien gave us this intensely personal account of his year as a foot soldier in Vietnam.
The author takes us with him to experience combat from behind an infantryman's rifle, to walk the minefields of My Lai, to crawl into the ghostly tunnels, and to explore the ambiguities of manhood and morality in a war gone terribly wrong. Beautifully written and searingly heartfelt,
If I Die in a Combat Zone
is a masterwork of its genre.
Tim O’Brien received the 1979 National Book Award in fiction for
Going After Cacciato
. His other works include the Pulitzer finalist and a New York Times Book of the Century,
The Things They Carried
; the acclaimed novels
Tomcat in Love
and
Northern Lights
; and the national bestselling memoir
If I Die in a Combat Zone
. His novel
In the Lake of the Woods
received the James Fenimore Cooper Prize from the Society of American Historians and was named the best novel of 1994 by Time. In 2010 he received the Katherine Anne Porter Award for a distinguished lifetime body of work and in 2012 he received the Richard C. Holbrooke Distinguished Achievement Award from the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation. He was awarded the Pritzker Literature Award for Lifetime Achievement in Military Writing in 2013.
