“Sir, their light hearts turned to stone.”<br />

The contrast of light and heavy helps us to understand<br />

how much the people of Vietnam have changed.<br />

“laughter is bitter to the burned mouth.”<br />

The ‘b’ sounds are quite harsh here. This alliteration<br />

emphasises the hurt and pain the people must have<br />

been through.<br />

“All the bones were charred.”<br />

This refers back to the question about ornaments, but it<br />

also gives us a terrible image of a village being<br />

bombed and bodies on fire.
