The End of Illusion: In Pharaoh's Army
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing Tobias Wolff's
memories of his time in Vietnam in the time of the Tet offensive. One of the themes evident
throughout the book is the death of illusion. Wolff joined the Army for the wrong reasons, and he
is disillusioned when he hears veterans fearing their return to Vietnam. He realizes after the Tet
offensive that he likely had been in conversation with a Vietcong at a pre-Tet celebration; he
realizes on his return that there is much about his father that is far different than he had
remembered. Illusions fell away before leaving, while in Vietnam and particularly on return.
