{"product_id":"the-return-to-viet-nam-jade-hidle-9781523792153","title":"The Return to Viet Nam","description":"\"Equal parts conjuring, critique, and memorial, the passages in The Return to Viet Nam portray the entrenched hauntings of not only war but also cultural, national, and racial purity, as Hidle inverts shame with an elegiac rawness that holds a truthful mirror to the cultural value of racial purity within Vietnamese societies at home and abroad. By poetically portraying her own multiple transgressions of not belonging both 'here' and 'there, ' Hidle's book reveals lifelong commingling of guilt and pride, deprivation and abundance, sacredness and profanity, loyalty and disobedience, rejection and rootedness.\" -Julie Thi Underhill, multidisciplinary scholar-artist-activist, author of \"Ghosts,\" \"Corner Shore,\" and \"The Gift Horse of War\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jade Hidle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1523792159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781523792153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/20\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.18d","brand":"Jade Hidle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48459274387711,"sku":"9781523792153","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_af1bc6c3-1d08-49b9-b311-c13a17f39887.jpg?v=1777408899","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-return-to-viet-nam-jade-hidle-9781523792153","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
