3.0 out of 5 stars
Characters are real, writing style quirky at times,
By A Customer
This review is from: I Married Vietnam: A Novel (Hardcover)
Setting the family historical information for the main character and using southern black vernacular in the beginning, I couldn't help but hear her own voice and not that of her characters. The action in Vietnam was vivid and well informed and I saw the worst of what it could be there. There wasn't much psychological depth to the main character Jeremy entering the war. He immediately was a killer; hard when he went in and when he came out. Jeremy's return to America was also well informed and realistic in his relationship with himself and his wife Sam. This portion seems to be the writer's own story and in the later chapters the writing becomes more poetic with emotional depth. I must say that I read it in a day and finished at 1am so it must have been compelling for me.
