This is a book of dreams, of terrible nightmares, of sweet memories of times long gone, of bitter regrets, passionate beliefs, of lost innocence. Sometimes it is only within such dreams that we can approach the truth… finding the meaning of those years we call “the Vietnam Era”. This is a collection of stories created out of the fire that seared a generation, that heated the crucible where our present reality was forged, that smolders still in the memories of everyone who lived through those turbulent years: Twenty-two brilliant offerings from the finest fantasists writing today–statements from the heart, bitingly honest, born in a genre that specializes in the creation of dreams, but reaching far beyond it with a perspective and a message that more conventional fiction cannot deliver. From the Central Highlands to the streets of Saigon to the refugee enclaves of Philadelphia, from the mid-60s to the mid-80s through a decade of denial, these are war stories from a war that was unlike any other–a war that in many ways has never ended.
