"The personal stories of five family members, over five different time periods, as they are respectively forced to leave their home country of Vietnam when outside forces or inner turmoil shatter their normal lives. Each story follows the journey of a family member as they must leave everything behind, adapt to a new country and culture, and live with the nostalgia of their homeland and their people."--Amazon.com.… (más)
This collection of two French graphic novels is a well done representation of the oral histories of Vietnamese emigrants, refugees and forced laborers. In the first section, the writer/artist recounts the experiences of his father and other Vietnamese refugees who fled the country during and after the Vietnam War. The second half presents the research and personal testimonies that resulted in journalist Pierre Daum's book, Immigrés de force: Les travailleurs indochinois de la second guerre mondiale, about 20,000 Vietnamese citizens who were forced to relocate to France during World War II to labor in support of the war effort for the French and Vichy governments.
Being a history aficionado, I was fascinated by the subject matter and the multiple and varied perspectives of the firsthand accounts Baloup and Daum diligently gathered. ( )
