![]() ![]() Author: Duong Huong Publisher: O Barra o Edizioni Lungo le fertili sponde del fiume Dinh sorge un villaggio famoso per la bellezza delle sue donne. Lì cresce Hanh, che insieme alle compagne muove i primi passi verso le tenerezze e i misteri dell'amore. Ma la guerra incombe e gli uomini, tra cui il suo giovane sposo Nghia, partono per il fronte lasciando le proprie amate nell'angoscia della separazione. Molti non fanno più ritorno, altri rientrano provati nel fisico e nella psiche, ormai inabili all'amore. Solo le donne sembrano conservare intatto il loro slancio vitale. Spinte da un profondo desiderio di procreazione, si oppongono alle perdite della guerra con le armi della passione, della seduzione e a volte del tradimento, ribellandosi così al forte controllo sociale e ideologico imposto dalla comunità del villaggio. Un romanzo che va oltre la comune retorica postbellica, testimonianza vivissima di una società dagli equilibri spezzati che si sostiene sul coraggio delle donne, sulla loro solidarietà e sul loro innato istinto di sopravvivenza. € 14,50

![]() ![]() Author: Duong Thu Huong, McPherson Nina (TRN), Phan Huy Duong (TRN) Publisher: Hachette Books Central Vietnam. 1975. A young peasant woman, happily married to a successful farmer, returns to her house in the countryside to find a thong of villagers assembled around her gate. She learns that her first husband - who reportedly died as a martyr and war hero many years earlier - is in fact alive and has returned to claim her. Faced with immense pressure from the community and the Party authorities, she agrees to leave her second husband and their son to live in a squalid shack with the veteran. This tragic twist of fate sets the stage for Duong Thu Huong's tale of three individuals whose destinies are inextricably linked and irrevocably altered by the absurdity of war. As the riveting story unfolds, each of the parties in this fateful love triangle struggles to reconcile personal happiness with traditional values of duty and selflessness. Together, these characters offer a devastating portrait of a people sacrificed on the altar of war and to a cult of heroism. € 21,30

![]() ![]() Author: Duong Thu Huong Publisher: E/O Per anni in occidente abbiamo letto e visto al cinema la guerra del Vietnam raccontata dagli americani. Racconti di una parte, anche quando ferocemente autocritici. Qui ci troviamo confrontati a una realtà sconosciuta, quasi indicibile nella sua sorprendente crudezza. La guerra, questa volta, la racconta una donna, Duong Thu Huong, la maggiore scrittrice vietnamita. Duong partì a vent'anni per il fronte con un gruppo di quaranta volontari comunisti di cui solo tre rimasero in vita. Oggi è perseguitata nel suo paese e i suoi libri sono censurati. € 15,00

![]() ![]() Author: Dng Thu Hng, McPherson Nina (TRN), Duong Phan Huy (TRN), Huong Duong Thu, Phan Huy Ng Publisher: Penguin Group USA Memories of a Pure Spring is a mesmerizing portrait of modern Vietnam and its people who struggle to survive under the complexities of a post-war regime. During the Vietnam war, Hung, a well-known composer, becomes enchanted by the voice and beauty of a young peasant girl named Suong. He invites her to join his troupe; she becomes his wife and his star performer. But after the war, Hung loses his job, setting off a series of events that drive him and Suong into a destructive spiral. One of Vietnam's most popular writers, Duong Thu Huong draws on her own experiences to describe life at the battlefront, the conditions of a 're-education' camp, and the texture and rhythm, scents and sounds, of a provincial Vietnamese city. Most of all, she tells a haunting, universal story of failed love. € 15,20
