Nothing Ever Dies, Viet Thanh Nguyen writes. All wars are fought twice, the first time on the battlefield, the second time in memory. From the author of the best-selling novel The Sympathizer comes a searching exploration of a conflict that lives on in the collective memory of both the Americans and the Vietnamese.

No less can be expected of VTN. This book is insightful, revealing a mastery of analysis, and writing prowess.
However, Audible’s version was so difficult to listen to as a Vietnamese person in the diaspora. EVERY word and name (including VTN’s very own), in all languages referenced (esp. Southeast Asian), is butchered with no obvious regard to asking the author how he would pronounce them.
This just shows how much we need audiobook READERS to be diverse and the industry to be inclusive.
Incredibly immersive and dense but terrible narration

He gives a new paradigm of ethics we can strive for as humanity and then goes deep into the factuals of the many wars in 20th century SE Asia.
I most enjoyed his explaining the problem of and solution to the rich nations' dominance of the industry of memories.
I liked his humor and that he pulls no punches on anyone.
What I least enjoyed: I think he struggles hard to overcome his bias as a South Vietnamese refugee. He almost does, but there are a few conclusions he draws about contemporary communist Vietnam that are neither nuanced, fair minded or accurate.
I like the comparison of little Saigon in California to a strategic hamlet.
Good, probably should be read and not listened to via audible for the best experience.

On the other hand, he raises some interesting things to think about - leading us to examine the source of all our "noble" patriotism. And really, isn't it better that a book be unenjoyable, but leave you with a changed world view?
Academic and thorough
