Brothers and Ghosts, Paperback / softback Book

Brothers and Ghosts Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A young woman, torn between two cultures, belonging to neither.

A family, torn apart by a war they had no choice about. Ki?u calls herself Kim because it’s easier for Europeans to pronounce.

She knows little about her Vietnamese family’s history until she receives a Facebook message from her estranged uncle in America, telling her that her grandmother is dying.

Her father and uncle haven’t spoken since the end of the Vietnam War.

One brother supported the Vietcong, while the other sided with the Americans. When Ki?u and her parents travel to America to join the rest of the family in California to open her grandmother’s will, questions relating to their past — to what has been suppressed — resurface and demand to be addressed.
