In this raw and moving memoir, Claude Thomas describes his service in
Vietnam, his subsequent emotional collapse, and his remarkable journey
toward healing. At Hell's Gate is not only a gripping coming-of-age
story but a spiritual travelogue from the horrors of combat to the
discovery of inner peace—a journey that inspired Thomas to become a Zen
monk and peace activist who travels to war-scarred regions around the
world. "Everyone has their Vietnam," Thomas writes. "Everyone has their
own experience of violence, calamity, or trauma." With simplicity and
power, this book offers timeless teachings on how we can all find
healing, and it presents practical guidance on how mindfulness and
compassion can transform our lives.
This expanded edition features:
• Discussion questions for reading groups
• A new afterword by the author reflecting on how
the current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are affecting soldiers—and
offering advice on how to help returning soldiers to cope with their
combat experiences
