Nguyen Khai's documentary novel, Past Continuous (the fourth book in the Voices from Vietnam Series) gives a fascinating inside view of the North Vietnamese strategies during the American War in Vietnam. As the three narrators exchange reminiscences, we not only learn about the innerworkings of the liberation movement, but we also see the tensions that developed afterward in the postwar society. The novel dramatizes the histories, adventures, and emotions of three extraordinary peoplea secret agent, a female battle commander, and a Catholic priest who sided with the revolution. In Nguyen Khai we have a Vietnamese Graham Greene exploring the revolution through the minds of three very different consciousnesses. The book includes an introduction by Series Editor Wayne Karlin and an afterward detailing the major events in Nguyen Khai's life and commentary on the importance of his contribution to Vietnamese literature.Nguyen Khai was born in 1930 in is the author of fifteen novels and short story collections, and is veteran of both the Hanoi and now lives in Ho Chi Minh City.
