Immigration stories are hard to read but so informative. I learnt a lot about Vietnam through this book. The only perspective about the Vietnam war I had was because of American pop culture references and movies/stories. It was interesting to read from the other POV as well. But trigger warnings for child neglect, miscarriages, racism, sexism, child birth, starvation, trauma, PTSD, war, refugee crisis.
