Kim Thuy's two novels are united by the voices of those who have been through hell in their lifetime, survived and remained human. This is a prose full of metaphors about people whose fates were mangled by the Vietnam War. They managed to escape, but now they are scattered on different continents, like colored grains, at a festival thrown by a child into the crowd.
Rue. A tunefully poetic and shockingly tragic chronicle of one rescue: the Vietnam War, a refugee camp in Malaysia, a peaceful but so incomprehensible and alien life in Canada. Um. A tale of sacrifice and victimhood, of those who knew too much about survival but so little about life. Each of them has something to be silent about, and each of them will be remembered, as vividly as a whitish scar on swarthy skin.
