A review by daisydoolie
Dispatches by Michael Herr

Did not finish book. Stopped at 34%.
The author wrote about the Vietnamese people in a way that felt dehumanising and racist. This is the main complaint. I’ve read other books by American actors in the Vietnam war who recognised the prejudices they and their fellow actors had and the general racist motivations in the war itself - this book was devoid of that completely.
