Excerpt from Andrew X. Pham's "Catfish and Mandala"

"The [Vietnam] I see isn't visceral. I'd be deceiving you if I took your hand to walk you through it. It isn't just something you see. It's what you feel, an echo in the blood that courses through you. It is a collage, a vanishing flavor, a poison, a metallic tinge, a barbarous joy, strange impressions unconvictable in the usual conventions."
