“Notice how he has numbered the blue veins

Now he goes left. Now he goes right.

“Saigon was an addicted city, and we were the drug: the corruption of children, the mutilation of young men, the prostitution of women, the humiliation of the old, the division of the family, the division of the country—it had all been done in our name....
