This first book by Tim O'Brien is an instant classic to me. Although I have not placed it in my classic bookshelf, the book touched a real unique place for me. Not often do I read books where a man can touch that primal section of the heart. The book is about war and pain, understanding and sorrow. Although it isn't his greatest book on the subject, it is his first try and it shines!
If you are an intelligent reader the man writes so very eloquently. If you could care less about the subtleties of writing but want a good read about the human condition during war, start here. The man writes to everyone from the soul. My favorite author hands down!
