</html>";s:4:"text";s:6966:"The Vietnam War is rightly considered by many, including the speaker of this collection, to have been a time of unimaginable destruction, death, and violence. Central to the speaker’s undertaking of both of these tasks is his choice to foreground and center the body as a site where opposites are unified. Night Sky With Exit Wounds is terrifying, heartbreaking, surreal, and lyrical–I’m not quite sure how a poet can fit so much humanity into so few words. As Ocean Vuong navigates the … In Night Sky with Exit Wounds, the idea of the American Dream is thus presented as just that—a dream with little substance. GradeSaver "Night Sky with Exit Wounds Themes". The tenderness associated with both the speaker’s grandparents and parents in Vietnam makes it all the more heartbreaking that they were displaced from the country, but the speaker himself never forgets his own roots in violent events. Night Sky With Exit Wounds is broken into three untitled sections, with the introductory poem "Threshold" preceding the start of the first section. His own body as a recipient of pain and abuse fuels his capacity to receive and deliver both harm and tenderness to others with his body (“On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous”). As the speaker looks backward to his past in an effort to understand how he can originate from such a violent place, he also attempts to reconcile his understandings of the past with who he is in the present. Night Sky With Exit Wounds examines the legacy of the Vietnam War on both global and personal levels. In "Self-Portrait as Exit Wounds," Vuong describes the anti-Vietnamese sentiments that cropped up in American culture during the Vietnam, and he uses the example of an audience cheering for John Wayne after he shoots a Vietnamese man in a film about the war. He is unable to completely cut off his father in his mind, and he at times even outright refuses to confront his misdeeds (“Deto(nation)”). For the speaker of this collection, however, the Vietnam War encompasses another quality—it is the event that precipitated the birth of his family line, since his origin lies with a “grandfather fucking / [a] pregnant farmgirl in the back of his army jeep.” Or, as rephrased more explicitly in the later poem “Notebook Fragments,” “An American soldier fucked a Vietnamese farmgirl. In poems like “Seventh Circle of Earth,” Vuong and his speaker suggest that being gay is antithetical to the constructed cultural ideal of America, and that to be gay in America is necessarily to be erased at every moment in one’s life. Related but perhaps more significant, however, is the speaker’s engagement with mythology in poems like “Telemachus” that links the speaker’s father to a mythic tradition. Night Sky with Exit Wounds study guide contains a biography of Ocean Vuong, literature essays, quiz questions, major themes, characters, and a full summary and analysis. Separately, however, the last prose line of the poem suggests that the speaker sees another important aspect of tackling the immigrant experience in writing: “Everyone can forget / us—as long as you remember.” The speaker knows how arduous the experience of immigration was for his parents, and he knows that it led to a less-than-glamorous place (e.g., his father’s abuses, his mother working at a nail salon à la “The Gift”), but he knows that it was for him and his well-being. Like Homer, I felt I’d better make it up. Of course, this is only one … GradeSaver, "Untitled (Blue, Green, and Brown): oil on canvas: Mark Rothko: 1952", Ocean Vuong and the Influence of Religion, Read the Study Guide for Night Sky with Exit Wounds…, Introduction to Night Sky with Exit Wounds, View the lesson plan for Night Sky with Exit Wounds…. resource to ask questions, find answers, and discuss the novel. The sacred and the profane meet in the body as the devotional act of prayer is commingled with devotional acts of sex and physical passion (“Devotion”). In most poems in the collection (notably, “Homewrecker” and “Prayer for the Newly Damned”), the love between two boys or two men is presented as something that both participants—or at the very least the speaker—know will lead to upset or violence within their family. In one poem, the body is fragile, but in the next, it is a testament to the stubborn truth of simply living despite hardship. In "Self-Portrait as Exit Wounds," Vuong describes the anti-Vietnamese sentiments that cropped up in American culture during the Vietnam, and he uses the example of an audience cheering for John Wayne after he shoots a Vietnamese man in a film about the war. This complex sense of erasure experienced by the speaker sheds a great deal of light on why he finds salvation in the body, which unifies the various identities that lead to his societal rejection. The experience of immigration is also deeply important to Vuong and his speaker. Nonetheless, the speaker’s relationships with many different men do progress, reflecting one of the many paradoxes that finds its solution in the body—despite knowing what it may cost, the speaker and his lovers choose to love one another because of how it makes them feel or how close it brings them to the peak of life. The strength that the speaker and Vuong see in poetry is unmistakable and linked to the power that they see in the body, but it is also a testament to the necessity of the father in constructing a personal mythos. He stands at the feet of American poetry and unties the masters’ shoelaces. everything you need to sharpen your knowledge of Night Sky With Exit Wounds. Night Sky With Exit Wounds examines the legacy of the Vietnam War on both global and personal levels. Thus my mother exists. This, however, is not all: Night Sky with Exit Wounds is not just focused on honestly depicting the experience of being gay, but being gay in America. This Study Guide consists of approximately 44 pages of chapter summaries, quotes, character analysis, themes, and more - Wherever one looks in the collection, they see along with the speaker that the body is central in unifying all these disparate and opposite experiences simply because it is the physical material that underpins life, which itself is so curious and strange so as to connect things that otherwise would seem totally unrelated. It's a fierce, provocative, political, and sensual collection that I found both … / Yikes.” The fact that, even amidst a backdrop of war and destruction, there is tenderness and love that is so personal and significant for the speaker is a central theme that runs throughout the collection insofar as it ties in with the collection’s larger project of exploring duality. In an interview with The Guardian’s Claire Armitstead, Vuong himself addressed this engagement nicely: "Western mythology is so charged with the father […] Personally, I’m always asking who’s my father.
