Professor David Crowe of Augustana College shares the insights that reshaped his understanding of the Vietnam War's impact after having taught Vietnam War literature abroad.
Vietnam War literature is important not only to the Vietnamese people and Americans. It turns out even Norwegian students are fascinated by the stories of the war. Augustana College English professor David Crowe has had the opportunity to teach Vietnam War literature in both Vietnam and Norway, and he will share stories about discoveries that changed his view of the war and its literature.
