This novel about a former soldier haunted by the past is “the first major book about Korean involvement in the Vietnam War” (Los Angeles Times).

Han Kiju is an executive in Seoul, a modern Korean intellectual who works in book publishing. But he has never fully come to grips with his memories of war—first the conflict that gripped his own country, and then his time in Vietnam.

When an old comrade-in-arms, a coward who crumpled in battle, begins to follow him, Kiju must finally deal with the ghosts of the past haunting his present, in this brutal, evocative tale of combat.
