West Coast Authors

Thao Huynh joins us to discuss THE FATE. Thao Huynh's text, the Fate is an autobiographical tour de force encompassing the geopolitical and historical events. The authors account is both rich and vibrant, as well as at times, extremely poignant. She writes, Contrary to popular belief, feudalism-characterizing family relationships still exists and bring repression and anguish to the women who suffer this fate. Her poetic way of writing envelops the reader. The tears have already been dried. I was just like a dead tree standing defiantly in the open air suffering from rain and shine, wind and tempest, but surprisingly refusing to collapse.
