5 stars
This may be the best graphic novel that I have ever read. The gorgeous artwork provides a moving backdrop to the author's reflections on her family's history in Vietnam, as refugees fleeing the aftermath of war, as immigrants starting over in a new country and as her own journey as a mother. Important, timely and beautifully depicted, this graphic novel perfectly illustrates the pain, fear and emotional toll that living in a war-torn country inflicts on individuals. I highly recommend this novel and hope that it is widely read. I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
