{"product_id":"a-mothers-tale-other-khanh-ha-9781949540239","title":"A Mother's Tale \u0026 Other Stories","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Mother's Tale is a tale of salvaging one's soul from received and inherited war-related trauma. Within the titular beautiful story of a mother's love for her son is the cruelty and senselessness of the Vietnam War, the poignant human connection, and a haunting narrative whose setting and atmosphere appear at times other worldly through their landscape and inhabitants. Captured in the vivid descriptions of Vietnam's country and culture are a host of characters, tortured and maimed and generous and still empathetic despite many obstacles, including a culture wrecked by losses. Somewhere in this chaos readers will find a tender link between the present-day survivors and those already gone. Rich and yet buoyant with a vision-like quality, this collection shares a common theme of love and loneliness, longing and compassion, where beauty is discovered in the moments of brutality, and agony is felt in ecstasy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Khanh Ha\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1949540235\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781949540239\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e C\u0026amp;r Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.32d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards - Bronze Medal Winner","brand":"Khanh Ha","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995461517567,"sku":"9781949540239","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ad94710-801e-44f5-a671-606a1ee32ba2.jpg?v=1683335947","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-mothers-tale-other-khanh-ha-9781949540239","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
