It has taken me a life time, but here they are: my book babies in English. I have cried, laughed, rejoiced when writing them. I was broken by writing them, but I was also healed by writing them. Thank you for reading & being part of this healing journey. https://t.co/9dYH6Kb40s

Highly recommend this profound novel re Vietnam (before, during & after the Vietnamese war) by @nguyen_p_quemai. So much insight on colonizers and how history just keeps repeating itself. 10/10
Reading is really it tbh.

For anyone staring at a blank page, @nguyen_p_quemai's advice is simple but powerful: write what compels you, not what sells. ✨Because the best story you’ll ever write is the one that feels like a gift to yourself. Watch her session at #BlrLitFest 2024: https://t.co/494pYZKi8q

Przedzierająca się przez oblicze wojennej zawieruchy, która pozostawia emocjonalne zgliszcza. Obrazująca relacje, które stają się spoiwem w niepewnych czasach. Będąca czułym i pięknym hołdem dla wietnamskiego narodu, który oddano z miłością. #TwitteroweKsiazkary #books #book

In 2007, @nguyen_p_quemai stood at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, unable to enter—until a letter at the foot of the black marble changed her life. This month marks the 50th anniversary of Vietnam war; this essay calls for humanity in the face of horror: https://t.co/t6LumuR0Kp

Happy Birthday to the UK edition of #DUSTCHILD! After seven years of hard work, seeing it for the first time in a bookshop was exhilarating! This book is a love letter to anyone who's been bullied, discriminated against or looked down upon. I wrote it because I was bullied😭😭

A pure example of how a book of fiction can be an absorbing history lesson. Vietnam 1972 and we meet the Tran family who’ve seen war, death, Land Reform & famine. A tale of survival, human spirit, forgiveness and hope. Eye-opening and evocative @nguyen_p_quemai #TheMountainsSing
