A 3 page essay on the short story, "The Things They Carried," in which author Tim O'Brien offers a complex psychological portrayal of the combat experience. O'Brien's writing style is not chronologically oriented, that is, one episode does not lead directly into the next. The abrupt starts and stops in the narrative mirror the disjointed and fractured thinking processes of the narrator rather than the reality of the situation. However, the narration is linked by several themes, and it is from one of these themes that O'Brien draws his title. This title, "The Thing They Carried," indicates the manner in which identity is formulated and how reality, for each soldier, is defined. In presenting this theme, O'Brien focuses on how the things they carried is connected to sense of self and how destroying what he carried symbolized lost innocence in the eyes of Lieutenant Jimmy Cross. No additional sources cited.
