With a soft spot for WWI novels, this was a fairly easy pick for my challenge list! I give you my list of 8 intended books for 2010, with a few extras as I imagine some may be tricky to find...
  • Novel without a Name by Duong Thu Huong
  • Window on a War: An Anthropologist in the Vietnam Conflict by Gerald Cannon Hickey
  • After the Massacre: Commemoration and Consolation in Ha My and My Lai by Heonik Kwon
  • The Wall: Images and Offerings From the Vietnam Veterans Memorial by Michael Norman
  • Wandering Souls by Wayne Karlin
  • Veterans of War, Veterans of Peace edited by Maxine Hong Kingston
  • A Lifetime of Peace by Thich Nhat Hanh
  • If I Die in a Combat Zone, Box me up and Ship me Home by Tim O’Brien
  • The Father of All Things by Tom Bissel
  • After the Fire, a Still Small Voice by Evie Wyld

Thank you for signing up for our challenge. Glad to have you on board. That's a great reading list. I haven't heard of some of these, so I'll have to check them out.
