On earth we`re briefly gorgeous [ang.]

Autor: Vuong, Ocean

Brilliant, heartbreaking and highly original, Ocean Vuong`s debut novel is a shattering portrait of a family, and a testament to the redemptive power of storytelling. `A marvel` MARLON JAMES This is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family`s history that began before he was born. It tells of Vietnam, of the lasting impact of war, and of his family`s struggle to forge a new future. And it serves as a doorway into parts of Little Dog`s life his mother has never known - episodes of bewilderment, fear and passion - all the while moving closer to an unforgettable revelation.
