Twilight Territory by Andrew X. Pham
From 11-25 July, booklovers with a Christchurch City library card can join thousands of others around the globe in borrowing Twilight Territory by Andrew X. Pham.
A lushly panoramic novel, by turns gritty and profoundly moving, Twilight Territory is at once a war story and a love story that offers a fascinating perspective on Vietnam's struggles to break free of its French colonial past. At its heart is one woman's struggle for independence and her country's liberation.
