This article will study a series of books that recreate through biography and fiction the experiences of the North American soldiers in the Vietnam war. These works, much better that all the texts written by politicians, members of the military or historians, succeed in showing what the war meant for a whole country, the United States of America. The texts selected (First Blood by David Morrell, Paco’s Story by Larry Curtis Heinemann, Born the Fourth of July by Ron Kovic and The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien) are studied with the purpose of showing how all of them share a similar narrative structure that, through the personal experience of the characters and their trauma, reflects the process of patriotic enthusiasm, disappointment, and rejection that the Vietnam war provoked in the nation.
