Descriptions du produit From Publishers Weekly Le's first novel is a bracing, unvarnished, elliptical account of a Vietnamese refugee family, in America but not yet of it, hobbled by an unfamiliar environment and their own troubled relationships. It's narrated by the family's young daughter, newly arrived in San Diego with her father after being sponsored by a well-meaning but condescending American family. Her mother soon joins them, and the family endures an itinerant existence of low-wage jobs and cheap rental apartments. Other Vietnamese wander namelessly through the book, sharing space with the family but providing little of the warmth of community. Nearly plotless, the novel is organized into vignettes that each feature one piercing image: a drunken parent, a shattered display cabine...

Descriptions du produit From Publishers Weekly First published in 1981 and out of print for several years, this new edition has been slightly expanded and lavishly illustrated.

Here he gives a lively account of their travels, describing plants, birds, the terrain and the people they encountered. The expedition used Sherpa guides and local men and women as porters. Among their finds were a bizarre snowball plant and a rare golden edelweiss that has defied attempts at cultivation. Lancaster reports on the fate of some plants in Englis...
