AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'My mother was a piano prodigy. She started playing as a child in Vietnam, and by the time she was a teenager, she was giving concerts. That’s how she met my father – he was in the audience watching her perform, and by the end of it, he had to know this girl. It was the early 1970s, not long before he went to war.' (Introduction)

Notes

  • Epigraph:

    I am not at peace, I tell her. I want to fail. I am hungry for what I am becoming
