The Old Village Road: Songs of a Vietnamese American - Paperback
Description
by Hao C. Tran (Author)
The second collection of short memoir pieces by Hao C. Tran, author of Skinny Woman in a Straw Hat.
"A deeply lyrical call home, a searing act of witness, and an unapologetically personal testament to exile and return."
--J.K. Fowler, Executive Director, Bay Area Book Festival
"A gifted writer and humanitarian, Hao Tran shares deeply moving stories of his life in Vietnam before the fall of Saigon, his travels and studies in Australia and the USA, and his return journeys to reconnect with family and friends who remained in Vietnam. Tran's memoir is an inspiring portrait of a true polymath."
--Evelyn Nakano Glenn, Professor Emerita, UC Berkeley
