91. The Things They Carried

by Tim O'Brien (273 pages)

This is a series of semi-autobiographical short stories about the Vietnam War. Reading this is a haunting and eerie experience. This book haunts me like a ghost and it makes me start to understand the dichotomy of the people involved in that war. They hated being there and they were hated for going there.
