Widely regarded as his most famous novel, which is a study of New World hope and innocence set in an old world of violence in Vietnam before the last Vietnam war. Essential reading for all students of Imperialism in Indo-China and is a real joy to read for anyone having been written by arguably one of the very greatest of modern wordsmiths.
