I picked up this 1978 reprint from the free shelf at work. Not sure how someone could let it go, but maybe it was a duplicate. In some ways, Cacciato is a first draft of the perfect and transcendent The Things They Carried but that only makes it more worthwhile. 4.5 🌟

britt_brooke @EvieBee That‘s so awesome! It‘s really good. 💚 I should really reread it one day. The Things They Carried and If I Die in a Combat Zone, both also by O‘Brien are excellent, too. 7y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk Love this book so much! I read a ton of O‘Brien in high school and then he ended up being our Convocation speaker my sophomore year in college. I got to meet him and get several books signed! 7y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk My favorite is probably 7y
britt_brooke @TobeyTheScavengerMonk Wow, That is so cool! And I haven‘t read The Nuclear Age, so thank you! 7y

#bookssetinasia: Six important, excellent Vietnam War books. Two are fiction, 4 are non. I recommend them all. #somethingforsept

kspenmoll I have only read The Things They Carried when in my son's HS curriculum. So important to be read & discussed. Read in my districts HS as well. 9y

Thought I'd do a re-read and then I flipped this open and was instantly transported back 13 years, to when I met O'Brien at the Boston Public Library. I was madly in love with everything he published, but this ended up being my favorite.

britt_brooke His books are so good. So good. 9y
StephAuteri @brittbrooke9 : I KNOW. Read The Things They Carried in a college short story and essay workshop and have been hooked ever since. 9y
britt_brooke I've read that one, too, and If I Die in a Combat Zone. All excellent. 👍🏻 @StephAuteri 9y
