64 reviewsOwner of a Lonely Heart is a memoir about parenthood, absence, & the condition of being a refugee: the story of Beth’s relationship with her mother. Framed by a handful of visits over the course of many years—sometimes brief, sometimes interrupted, sometimes with her mother alone & sometimes with her sister—Beth tells a coming-of-age story that spans her own Midwestern childhood, her first meeting with her mother, & becoming a parent herself.
Vivid & illuminating, Owner of a Lonely Heart is a deeply personal story of family, connection, & belonging: as a daughter, a mother, & as a Vietnamese refugee in America.
