I think all three? I’ve recently been reading a bit about Vo Nguyen Giáp, the Sino-Vietnamese war, and have had The Sympathizer and a few other books on my to-read list. I think what I’m interested in is the cultural and political context of Vietnam during the 20th century, preferably not from just a Vietnamese War context. Been trying to wrap my head around how this people were in war and conflict for so much of that century both with themselves and with others. This seems like a very complex, very way-too-large-of-a-scope way of coming at this, so apologies if this is not a useful reply. I’m working it out.
