«Putain de mort» is Michael Herr's war account of Vietnam, published by Albin Michel in paperback (264 pages, in French).
After covering Vietnam as a correspondent for Esquire in 1967-1968, Michael Herr took ten years to turn his dispatches into this book. It portrays the war from within: the siege of Khe Sanh, everyday danger, rock and roll amid the chaos and the closeness of death. A classic of war journalism.
Original title: Dispatches (1977). The work was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1977 and won the International Press Prize in 1978.
For readers interested in the Vietnam War, war journalism, and historical non-fiction.
