Dust Child A Novel Nguyen Phan Que Mai Nguyn Phan Qu Mai by Nguyen Phan Que Mai [nguyễn Phan Quế Mai] instant download after payment.

A suspenseful & moving & about family secrets, hidden trauma, & the overriding power of forgiveness, set during the war & in present-day Việt Nam. 
 
In 1969, sisters Trang & Quỳnh, desperate to help their parents pay off debts, leave their rural village & become “bar girls” in Sài Gòn, drinking, flirting (and more) with American GIs in return for money. As the war moves closer to the city, the once-innocent Trang gets swept up in an irresistible romance with a young & charming American helicopter pilot. Decades later, an American veteran, Dan, returns to Việt Nam with his wife, Linda, hoping to find a way to heal from his PTSD and, unbeknownst to her, reckon with secrets from his past. 

At the same time, Phong—the son of a Black American soldier & a Vietnamese woman—embarks on a search to find both his parents & a way out of Việt Nam. Abandoned in front of an orphanage, Phong grew up being called “the dust of life,” “Black American imperialist,” & “child of the enemy,” & he dreams of a better life for himself & his family in the U.S.

Past & present converge as these characters come together to confront decisions made during a time of war—decisions that force them to look deep within & find common ground across race, generation, culture, & language. Suspenseful, poetic, & perfect for readers of Min Jin Lee’s Pachinko or Yaa Gyasi’s Homegoing, Dust Child tells an unforgettable & immersive story of how those who inherited tragedy can redefine their destinies through love, hard-earned wisdom, compassion, courage, & joy.

Born & raised in Việt Nam, Nguyễn Phan Quế Mai is the author of The Mountains Sing, runner-up for the 2021 Dayton Literary Peace Prize, winner of the 2020 BookBrowse Best Debut Award, the 2021 International Book Awards, the 2021 PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Literary Award, & the 2020 Lannan Literary Award Fellowship for Fiction.
