   Extractions: Tim O'Brien, renowned for his award-winning Vietnam War fiction, turns his gaze upon a different war in his new novel: the war of the sexes. The results are at once hilarious and touchingly sad. The narrator of Tomcat in Love is Thomas Chippering, a deluded, self-justifying, egomaniacal womanizer who refuses to move on with his life after his wife leaves him. Instead, he embarks upon a journey of revenge while simultaneously trying to bed every woman he meets. Mr. Chippering reveals the extent of his dementia at one point by saying, "There can be little on this earth more fundamentally satisfying than a piece of intelligently conceived, impeccably executed vengeance." Despite the incessant humor of the book, it is a serious novel that examines the lengths we will go to in the pursuit of love.

    Extractions: O'Brien, Tim Biography Influences Style Thematic Concerns ... Further Exploration Biography O'Brien was born 1946 in Austin, Minnesota, the oldest of three children; his father was an insurance salesman who had fought at Iwo Jima and Okinawa and his mother an elementary school teacher. O'Brien was drafted into the Army in August, 1968. When he was classified as an infantryman he seriously considered going to Canada. 1970-75 studied government at Harvard but never finished; during this same period he interned for Washington Post for two summers later worked there full-time. Influences During his Vietnam tour, O'Brien began jotting down stories about the war at least in part to cope with it. He says that had he not gone to Vietnam he might not have become a writer. Style Much of what O'Brien writes is metafiction , i.e., fiction that discusses the function and effect of storytelling Thematic Concerns O'Brien's central theme is the theme of courage; he equates courage with having moral integrity and strength to take control of one's life and do what he knows to be ethically right. All of his books deal in part with a character's willingness or unwillingness to serve in Vietnam and raise the question of which choice is the most brave and decent.

    Extractions: PLAUSIBILITY OF DENIAL: Tim O'Brien, My Lai, and America by H. Bruce Franklin [Originally in The Progressive , December 1994] B esides the well-deserved guilt and shame and anguish evoked by the Vietnam War, Americans can also take rightful pride in two great national achievements. Foremost is the antiwar movement of tens of millions of ordinary citizens, a movement in which Vietnam veterans and active-duty soldiers eventually played a decisive role. The other major achievement is the literature produced by the war, a literature of which Vietnam veterans have become the formative creators. Among the scores of important Vietnam-veteran writers are such fine poets as Bruce Weigl, John Balaban, W. D. Ehrhart, Marilyn McMahon, and Yusef Komunyakaa (winner of the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for poetry); playwrights and filmwriters like David Rabe and Oliver Stone; and fiction writers as diverse as Larry Heinemann (winner of the 1987 National Book Award for Paco's Story ), Tobias Wolff, Elizabeth Ann Scarborough, Gustav Hasford (author of the novel on which the film Full Metal Jacket was based), Stephen Wright, David Huddle, Wayne Karlin, Philip Caputo, James Crumley, Winston Groom (author of

    Extractions: Tim O'Brien is of the generation of writers who came of age during the Vietnam War era and his writing has focused on that turbulent period in American history with compassion and insight. He is widely recognized as the preeminent American novelist of the Vietnam experience and his novels have gained widespread critical and significant popular success because of their ability to translate the experience of wartime into perspectives on the largest questions of life and death. His books share the highest aspirations of great artto find meaning in the world and to show the way toward it through the human experience. That he has been remarkably successful is attested to by critical accolades, literary awards and, perhaps most tellingly, by the letters of heartfelt gratitude he has received from readers of his books. O'Brien's first book, If I Die in A Combat Zone , was published in 1973 and was praised as a powerful memoir of an intelligent young soldier's experience in the Vietnam war, a morally ambiguous quagmire and a physically horrific experience. Combat Zone received the kind of praise young writers dream of: critics compared it as a war memoir to the writings of Melville, Crane, Whitman and Hemingway, and as an American spiritual autobiography to the writings of Franklin, Thoreau and Henry Adams.
