A Piece of My Heart di Keith Walker
Interviews with 26 women who served in various capacities in Vietnam -- gut-wrenching yet surprisingly upbeat. Most of the women are not bitter. Basis for the play.
This book is composed of interviews of women who spent time in Vietnam during the U. S. occupation in the 1960s and 1970s.

Although there are similarities between the stories, each is also thoroughly unique, and each gives us a little more knowledge about the people, the place, and the time. Most carry a sadness, but the sorrow comes not only from the lives which were lost, but in the lives which are still tied to Vietnam years after they left.… (altro)
