Read this in June 2014
This entertaining and interesting historical war novel was the National Book Award winner for fiction in 2007.
It's a mindblowing story of spies and disinformation psychological operations against the Vietcong during the Vietnam War with an interesting writing style. There were dozens of main characters and dozens more of minor ones. Of course the CIA is in itself a character that is fractured, divided and at war with itself that break the law and it's agent' spirit.
I've read a lot of books on the Vietnam War which was a great help in understanding and following along with all the crazy things happening in this novel including a heavy dose of the fog of war.
