A Vietnam veteran weeps after locating his friend's name. The monument elicits powerful reactions from those who visit it.

Writer Arthur C. Danto described the Wall as “a book of the dead, listed in chronological order from the first one killed in 1959 to the last one in 1975.”14 Maya Lin’s “Book of the Dead” can be read by everyone who visits the Wall.

In spite of her frustration about the controversy over the design and the attempts to make changes to it, Lin had seen her vision through. Her concept of a memorial befitting war veterans had been built just as she had imagined. Many people had been associated with the project of building the memorial, and many had opposed it—but it was Maya Lin’s name that would be remembered.
