Historical novels tell interesting stories about a time and place and the people living there. The authors of these novels must do extensive research so that their writing accurately reflects the history of the period. Using “The Women†by Kristin Hannah as the launching point, this class will offer a one-hour look at the history of the Vietnam War – both in-country and on the home front – to provide the historical context for the novel. We will then spend an hour discussing the novel as a piece of contemporary literature. Readers and history buffs welcome! Participants should read “The Women†before class.
