Description "The title refers to the hearts and minds of the Vietnamese people which our troops were somehow supposed to win by fighting a long and terrible war. It also refers to the troubled hearts and minds of the survivors - scared veterans and even more scared refugees - all of whom are expected now to live peaceably together under the smooth reassuring regime of multiculturalism."
