Explanation:
Tim O'Brien's "The Things They Carried" is a general reflection on the burdens we all carry, irrespective of our lives. The novel contains a number of linked short stories about military men and their lives before and after the war.
In the chapter "Speaking of Courage", O'Brien<u> juxtaposes the calm, serene and peaceful town of Iowa to that of the violence in Vietnam during the war</u>. <u>Juxtaposing is the act of putting contrasting things together, side by side</u>. And O'Brien does that through Norman Bowker in his reflection of the war days to the present, drowsy summer day in Iowa, while cruising through the town.
