Тим О’Брайен — американский писатель, политолог и журналист, лауреат Национальной книжной премии и множества других национальных и международных премий. В 20 лет, прямо со студенческой скамьи, был призван в армию, чтобы отправиться служить во Вьетнам. Он пробыл всего год на этой войне — самый страшный год своей жизни, который, по собственному признанию писателя, оставил незаживающую рану в его сердце. Позже, когда боль пережитого ужаса начала стихать, он начал писать об этой войне — так, как может писать лишь тот, кто под обстрелом вжимался в землю, пропахшую порохом и кровью, терял друзей, убивал и видел то, чего не должен видеть никто и никогда. Возможно, именно поэтому его поразительные в своей откровенности рассказы производят на читателя столь оглушительное впечатление.
