Reseña del editor:

In 1975, Tran, a Vietnamese writer facing government persecution, flees her homeland with her two children and seeks refuge in the West, where she marries a Danish-American man with his own memories of another war, in a sensitive debut novel about the impact of cultural displacement. A first novel. Original.
