Paperback. Zustand: Like New. ?A beautifully curated, deeply moving collection.? ?San Francisco Book Review Fifty years after the end of the Vietnam War, literary voices of the Vietnamese-American diaspora as well as Vietnam-based authors speak to the experience of those who left and those who stayed in THE COLORS OF APRIL, a collection of new short fiction curated by award-winning translators and editors Quan Manh Ha and Cab Tran. For much of the twentieth century, Vietnam played an outsized role on the global stage, charting the destinies of superpowers and reshaping the world?s politics. Now fifty years after the end of the Vietnam War comes an anthology of fiction that finally speaks to the global Vietnamese experience: voices of both those who left and those who stayed, what was gained and lost in the half century since, and?for the generations that followed?what it means to be Vietnamese. More than two dozen distinct literary voices are featured in this collection, including Viet Thanh Nguyen (Pulitzer Prize winner, The Sympathizer), Andrew Lam (PEN/Beyond Margins Award winner, Perfume Dreams), Barbara Tran (Lannan Foundation Award winner, In the Mynah Bird's Own Words), Vu Tran (Whiting Award winner, Dragonfish) and many more. The stories are as diverse in style, tone, and subject matter as the ancestral lands of the Vietnamese people. From the rubble of the Ancient Citadel in Qu?ng Tr? to the makeshift orphanages outside Sài Gòn, from Palo Alto to a tony Lincoln Park apartment in Chicago, the narratives straddle continents and generations, the political as well as the personal. But what they share is much greater than their differences. They speak to a common language, to a culture steeped in history and myth and storytelling that vividly captures the enduring spirit of the Vietnamese people. Editor Quan Manh Ha is Professor of English at the University of Montana and the co-translator of Other Moons: Vietnamese Short Stories of the American War and Its Aftermath, among other titles. Co-editor Cab Tran holds an MFA from University of Michigan?s Helen Zell Writers? Program. His fiction and nonfiction have appeared in Vagabond: Bulgaria?s English Monthly, Black Warrior Review, The Iconoclast, and elsewhere. He teaches fiction for Gotham Writers Workshop. In 2023, Ha and Tran co-translated and co-edited B?o Ninh?s Hà N?i at Midnight. Complete list of contributors in alphabetical order: B?O Th??ng, Thuy DINH, ?? Th?

Soft cover. Zustand: New. The Termite Queen delves into the seamy underground of corrupt development practices and environmental degradation in Viet Nam. Burrowing deep inside the tension-filled relationship between contemporary Viet Nam s hyper-capitalist society and its communist government, T Duy Anh s The Termite Queen tells the Kafkaesque story of a young man who must expose the corruption of a vast network of murky figures profiting from their connections to power. Banned in Viet Nam, this allegorical story is told by Viet, a native-born Vietnamese who takes over his deceased father s powerful land development corporation. The funeral hasn t even concluded before Viet suspects foul play, as one clue after another leads him to question everything he thought he knew about his father, their family business, and its incredible ability to get approval for projects with dubious societal and environmental returns. With The Termite Queen, T Duy Anh cements his reputation as one of contemporary Viet Nam s greatest fabulists, having filled this tale with criticisms that can only come from a deep and abiding love for his country.…
