This is a book about the Vietnam War told from an unusual perspective - that of the Amerasian children left behind in the wake of the US Army when their soldiers returned home. In 1969, two young sisters go to Saigon in search of work and get caught up in a completely different world to the one they'd imagined. One of them - Trang, with her Anglicised name of Kim - falls in love with a GI who then abandons her. Forty years later that man returns to the country with his wife, looking for peace and redemption and to finally right the wrongs for the child he left behind all those years ago. This is a very human piece of history. - Joan
