Description
About the Book
Tuyen Do's Summer Rolls is a sweeping generational saga that follows the lives, secrets, and traumas of a British-Vietnamese family.
Book Synopsis
The Nguyen family are nursing deep wounds and secrets. Escaping war-torn Vietnam has left scars that no one is willing to talk about. As the family gradually integrates into their new life in Britain, the youngest daughter Mai turns to photography, her camera becoming a conduit through which she navigates her dual identity as a second generation immigrant and chronicles her community's experiences.About the Author
