    Tim O'Brien

    Tim O’Brien an author and veteran thinking about Vietnam. As Tim O’Brien recollects and presents a story about animating the dead — the scene with the toast to the dead Vietnamese — another story within that story unfolds, O'Brien recollecting the death of his childhood friend, Linda. After O’Brien’s Platoon took sniper fire from a little village, Lt. Jimmy Cross got on the radio and ordered an airstrike. “When it ended, we formed into a loose line and swept through the village. It was all wreckage. I remember the smell of burnt straw; I remember broken fences and torn up trees and heaps of stone and brick and pottery. The place was deserted- no people, no animals- and the only confirmed kill was an old man who lay face-up near a pigpen at the center of the village” (p.225-226). O’Brien’s use of concrete diction helps the reader understand the innocence of the poor old man that had nothing to do with the war but was just carrying on his day like the usual and all of a sudden these soldiers showed up and decided his death with an air strike. As the soldiers swept through the village “They proposed toasts. They lifted their canteens and drank to the old man’s family and ancestors, his many grandchildren, his newfound life after death. It was more than mockery. There was a formality to it, like a funeral without the sadness.” (p.227). As the old man sat helplessly against the fence the soldiers continues to harass the innocent old man without any emotions due to the fact that he is dead. As dusk came closer Kiowa talked to O’Brien about what the soldiers had done was wrong. “ You did a good thing today, That shaking hands crap, it isn’t decent.” (p.227) O’Brien being the new and innocent soldier of his platoon was pressured to do something he did not want to but he chose not to because of his past experience with someone dear to him.…

    The depiction of the family's surroundings while driving through Georgia offers many hints to their tragic deaths. At first it seems the O'Connor is just providing vivid descriptions of the land, but continuing through the story one begins to realise a constant theme within the setting. While driving the family "passed a large cotton field with five or six graves fenced in the middle of it, like a small island" (660). What makes this passage so significant is the fact that there are six people traveling in the car, insinuating that the family will also end up in graves. As if this was not a big enough of a hint, later on in their travels the grandmother recalls an old plantation that she had visited in the neighbourhood of "Toombsboro" (662). Upon hearing this location, the word tomb comes to mind, symbolising death. It is also interesting that she thinks that the old plantation is in this specific town, since her wanting to go to the house is initially what causes the family's untimely end.…

    Homecoming by Bruce Dawe

    • 1161 Words
    • 34 Pages

    The title “Homecoming” is used effectively to contrast the traditional universal implications of the word with the shocking reality of dead soldiers flown home from Vietnam to grieving families. The word “homecoming” usually implies a celebration or Heroic reception for a great achievement, with a return to roots and family. It would further invoke a sense of anticipation for the return of a loved one whom has a real identity and a place in the hearts of those awaiting his arrival. However, the title operates ironically because the “homecoming” described in the poem is related to death, mourning and loss and the arrival of a nameless body is quite different from the heartfelt joy extended to a loved one. By establishing Irony through the globally understood ritual of homecoming celebration, Dawe generates universal appeal. Through the use of Repetition, Dawe establishes the inhuman, machine-like processing of human bodies, a ghastly reality common to all conflicts that use innocent soldiers as cannon fodder. These soldiers will never have an opportunity to voice their protests…
