Dads Maybe Book by Tim O’brien

The bestselling author of The Things They Carried and If I Die in a Combat Zone shares wisdom from a life in letters, lessons learned in wartime, and the challenges, humour and rewards of raising two sons.

‘[A] stirring blend of memoir, letters to his young sons, and meditations on the humbling nature of parenthood…It’s a work that’s the spiritual inheritor of John Steinbeck’s Travels With Charley and Kurt Vonnegut’s A Man Without a Country[O’Brien] takes absolutism to task, finds qualifications for his own pacifism and considers the paradox of a moral society that allows for forever war’ Time Magazine

‘O'Brien uses his deft skill of wordplay throughout this latest book…Fans of parenting books, memoirs, and stories of Vietnam War veterans will find enjoyment in these heartfelt words’ Library Journal

Tim O’Brien’s acclaimed novels include The Things They Carried; July, July; and Going After Cacciato, which received the 1979 National Book Award in fiction. He was awarded the Pritzker Literature Award for lifetime achievement in military writing in 2013. He lives in Austin, Texas.
