具体描述

Thi Bui was born in Vietnam and immigrated to the United States as a child. She studied art and law and thought about becoming a civil rights lawyer, but became a public school teacher instead. Bui lives in Berkeley, California, with her son, her husband, and her mother. The Best We Could Do is her debut graphic novel.

An intimate and poignant graphic novel portraying one family’s journey from war-torn Vietnam from debut author Thi Bui.

This beautifully illustrated and emotional story is an evocative memoir about the search for a better future and a longing for the past. Exploring the anguish of immigration and the lasting effects that displacement has on a child and her family, Bui documents the story of her family’s daring escape after the fall of South Vietnam in the 1970s, and the difficulties they faced building new lives for themselves.

At the heart of Bui’s story is a universal struggle: While adjusting to life as a first-time mother, she ultimately discovers what it means to be a parent—the endless sacrifices, the unnoticed gestures, and the depths of unspoken love. Despite how impossible it seems to take on the simultaneous roles of both parent and child, Bui pushes through. With haunting, poetic writing and breathtaking art, she examines the strength of family, the importance of identity, and the meaning of home.

In what Pulitzer Prize–winning novelist Viet Thanh Nguyen calls “a book to break your heart and heal it,” The Best We Could Do brings to life Thi Bui’s journey of understanding, and provides inspiration to all of those who search for a better future while longing for a simpler past.

##一开始因为时间线乱跳觉得有点乱,之后重大历史事件作用于个人及家庭命运时就有沉重的感受了:二战、土地改革、越南战争、北越政权建立等等,其实事件都是熟悉的,苦难也是早有预料的,只是位置不同感受更加复杂。另外越南与朝鲜半岛有某种类似的轨迹,更加觉得人的相同而非不同。 按:自八月份十位阿富汗平民在喀布尔无人机袭击中丧生的惨案已经过去了两个月,而网络上对于阿富汗命运的关注渐渐趋于沉寂。但正是在这样一个时代,我们比任何时候都需要了解其他地方发生了什么,需要去理解如何关心那些遥远的“除了我们以外”的邻人。裴施的这本后越战时期的...

##不是二代移民典型的身份认同作品。首一整章写新生,messy而艰难。中间大部分是父母在越南的家国历史。在越南蝼蚁求生,至出走美国,隐约并置的是一条“重生”产道。末章落脚于生老病死,点题的“尽力而为”(存活),是为父母的信条,亦是“幸存者”移民二代真正的文化遗产,刻在血肉里的处世之道
