While the French Army in Indo-China is grappling with the Vietminh, back at Saigon a young and high-minded American begins to channel economic aid to a Third Force . Fowler, a seasoned foreign correspondent, observes: I never knew a man who had better motives for all the trouble he caused. As young Pyle s policies blunder on into bloodshed, the older man finds it impossible to stand aside as an observer. But Fowler s motives for intervening are suspect, both to the police and to himself: for Pyle has robbed him of his Vietnamese mistress. |
