Damaris Swass English 120 Professor Bradbury February 17, 2012 The Truth Behind the “Sweetheart of Song Tra Bong” When a narrator imparts a story on to an audience they are presenting their listeners with a small gift.

In the book “The Things They Carried” by Tim O’Brien the author demonstrates the preference for heart-truth over happening-truth because, by using this type of style, he is able to communicate emotions that he experienced first hand in the war without the limitation of being true to his real life comrades. By taking these liberties with his writing style he is able to give more depth to his characters then he would be able to give to his real life piers. One area in particular that he was able to explore better was the inner emotions of the characters he created for his short stories. This allowed him to create characters that his audience would be able to better identify with in understanding the realities of war. One such example of his use of heart-truth is in his development of the character Tim O’Brien, in the story “On a Rainy River”.

It allowed the reader to experience the problem on a personal level through another person’s eyes as opposed to listing facts like the first story did the whole time. Writing it in a first person point of view made it easier for the audience to identify with the author and side with what he is trying to persuade us to believe. We tend to take the story to heart more when it is written in this point of view.
