Nothing Ever Dies by Viet Thanh Nguyen
Vietnam and the Memory of War
The book delves into the complex and enduring legacy of war, particularly focusing on the Vietnam War, and examines how memory, identity, and ethics are shaped by conflict. It explores the ways in which different cultures remember and represent war, highlighting the disparities in narratives between the victors and the vanquished. Through a critical analysis of literature, film, and art, the book argues for a more inclusive and ethical approach to remembering war, one that acknowledges the humanity of all sides and the interconnectedness of their histories.
