  • Description
    THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER AND TIKTOK SENSATION 'A marvel' Marlon James Brilliant, heart-breaking and highly original, discover Ocean Vuong's shattering coming of age novel. This is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family's history that began before he was born. It tells of Vietnam, of the lasting impact of war, and of his family's struggle to forge a new future. And it serves as a doorway into parts of Little Dog's life his mother has never known - episodes of bewilderment, fear and passion - all the while moving closer to an unforgettable revelation. 'Reminded me that every word can be an incantation, and that beauty does hard and important work' Rebecca Solnit

    Nice

    It's a copy product. Writing on the spine is crooked. Some pages are too; overlookable if you just wanna read the book. Serves the purpose pretty well but if you're a nitpicky perfectionist then you'll have an OCD stroke. Godspeed.

    Super!

    It was in my reading list for a long time and other readers have been recommending it regularly which at last made me purchase it.
    The quality of the book is good and the packaging came out to be satisfactory too.
    And regarding this book, I am excited for the fiction inside as it is a sad book, I love the sad genre. It is beautiful and very subtly written.
