HVCC Book Club reads “The Things They Carried” for November!

 

The HVCC Book Club will meet Nov. 14 at noon in the Dwight Marvin Library’s Honors Room. Join us as we discuss Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried.

Strange things happen to soldiers in Vietnam: they get paranoid, and they lose their sense of morality and justice. They become hardened and angry, because no one back home understands what they are going through. Called both a novel and a collection of interrelated short stories, Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried is a war memoir, a writer’s autobiography and a work of fiction.

Join us in a celebration of Veterans as we discuss this book in November!
