Some of the best nonfiction I’ve ever read. No spoilers, but Herr’s story on 64 is some of the most haunting things I’ve ever read. I was reading on my plane ride home from Durran’s Bachelor Party trip in New Orleans, and and I shed tears sitting between two strangers. Hours later, it still sits so heavily on your shoulders.

Really descriptive. I am in awe of Herr’s ability to notice stuff. Pretty remarkable.
I like how he simultaneously caps off and leads some paragraphs with double entendres.
