I’ve been a bit quiet this week, but I did want to call your attention to a great guest post from Tatjana Soli, author of The Lotus Eaters, that Anna and I posted on War Through the Generations.
Soli raises a great number of questions about what war means and how location plays into that, but she also highlights how the impact of war is best seen from the individual perspective — whether it is the soldier, the journalist, or the average civilian. In a way, this post explains how she became inspired enough to write The Lotus Eaters.
I hope you take the time to check out the guest post and leave a comment. If you missed my review of this phenomenal book, please check that out as well.
***As an aside, have you seen the episode of Samantha Brown’s travel show? You should check out the episode on Vietnam.
