This month's special
feature: As a Canadian citizen living in California, Les
Brown was a world away from the horror on the other side of the Pacific.
But then the late 1960s crept up and he was drafted into the U.S. Army
and sent off to Vietnam, where he came to fully understand fear, misery
and alienation. Written in the raw language of a soldier,
There It
Is: A Canadian in the Vietnam War describes the experience of perpetual
danger and inhumanity. It is a haunting portrait of the hellishness of
war that is at once thrilling and astonishing.
"In There It Is, one
hears echoes of [Michael] Herr's Dispatches … Brown presents a unique perspective
of the war the U.S. couldn't win."
