Notes

Description
With two novels published to international acclaim, Duong Thu Huong, Vietnam's most popular writer and outspoken dissident, has established herself as a major voice in world fiction. Her latest work is a deeply autobiographical novel of passion and intensity, rendered in haunting and lyrical prose.
Description
Memories of a Pure Spring tells the story of a singer and her composer husband and explores their relationship's passionate in the midst of war -- and tragic end in its aftermath. Huong portrays the chaos of modern Vietnam, vividly depicting the betrayal she and a generation of Vietnamese artists and writers experienced after the war: the persecution of those unwilling to bend to the censors, the inhuman conditions inside "re-education" prison camps, the midnight escapes by boat, and the corruption that gnaws at the heart of the new regime they brought to power.
