Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family’s history that began before he was born -- a history whose epicenter is rooted in Vietnam -- and serves as a doorway into parts of his life his mother has never known, all of it leading to an unforgettable revelation. At once a witness to the fraught yet undeniable love between a single mother and her son, it is also a brutally honest exploration of race, class, and masculinity. Asking questions central to our American moment, immersed as we are in addiction, violence, and trauma, but undergirded by compassion and tenderness, On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is as much about the power of telling one’s own story as it is about the obliterating silence of not being heard. 【詳細資料】 誠品26碼/2681866927007 ISBN13/9780525507710 ISBN10/052550771X EAN/9780525507710 頁數/256 尺寸/20.8X13.7X2.5CM 級別/無 裝訂/平裝 語言/英文 用電/N ■作者簡介Ocean VuongOcean Vuong Ocean Vuong is the author of the critically acclaimed poetry collection Night Sky with Exit Wounds and the New York Times bestselling novel On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous.
