Ha Noi, 1972. Hương and her grandmother, Trần Diệu Lan, huddle together in their makeshift shelter as American bombs rain down around them. For Trần Diệu Lan, who was forced to leave her family farm with her six children decades earlier as the Communist government took control in the North, this experience is deeply familiar. Through the eyes of these two unforgettable women, The Mountains Sing vividly portrays their resilience and determination, as well as their moments of hope and unexpected joy.
Celebrated Vietnamese poet Nguyễn's debut novel weaves a unique tapestry between the lives of a grandmother and granddaughter, offering a poignant portrayal of a country pushed to its breaking point and a family that refuses to surrender. Selected as a Best Book of 2020 by esteemed publications such as NB Magazine, BookBrowse, Buzz Magazine, NPR, Washington Independent Review of Books, Real Simple, She Reads, A Hindu's View, and Thoughts from a Page, this literary masterpiece is a must-read for anyone seeking an immersive experience into the complexities of Vietnam's history and culture.
