The Refugees - Grand Format

"A rich exploration of human identity, family ties and love and loss, never has a short story collection been timelier", Five stars, Independant. "With anger but not despair, with reconciliation but not unrealistic hope, and with genuine humour that is not used to diminish anyone, Nguyen has breathed life into many unforgettable characters, and given us a timely book focusing, in the words of Willa Cather, on "the slow working out of fate in people of allied sentiment and allied blood"', Yiyun Li, Guardian.
"[A] superb collection... exquisite stories... Nguyen crafts dazzlingly lucid prose", Observer. "'Beautiful and heartrending", Joyce Carol Oates, New Yorker.
