Amazon.com description: Product Description: These poetic and moving spiritual reÂflections, born of the authorâs experiÂences as an American chaplain in VietÂnam, are built on the themes of the ambivalent nature of war and the uniÂversal elements in the lives of the peoÂple, Vietnamese and Americans, who live, fight, suffer and die there. It is also the story of a modern manâs search for a God who is consistent with the realities of human misery, hope, grief, death, Coke and the âsplurge now, pay laterâ way of living that is now part of everymanâs heritage. The author writes, âAs hateful as the war is there is, in fact, a unity of all thought that brings everyone before the same God without âbother business words.â VietÂnam is the mirror of those things we decry most loudly about ourselves.â From the âeverydayâ incidents of life in a wartorn countryâan American soldierâs conflicts with his family back home, a Vietnamese boy forced by his family to marry before he joins the army, a young girl arriving at womanÂhood with a profound acceptance of death and despair while remaining girlish and freeâthe author has creÂated a work of both spiritual depth and poetic beauty.
