Politics & Prose at Busboys and Poets presents Lynn Kanter discussing Her Own Vietnam.
Kanter works as a writer for the Center for Community Change, an organization devoted to social justice, and has published two novels as well as many essays and short stories. Her third novel focuses on Della, who finds herself reliving the most painful events of her life when she gets a letter from an old friend she served with as a U.S. Army nurse in Vietnam. A finalist for Forward Reviews Indiefab Award for military fiction, Kanter’s book is a haunting examination of war from the rarely heard female point of view.
