Landbridge: life in fragments by Y-Dang Troeung

4.0

A powerful memoir describing the epigenetic intergenerational effects of war, trauma and genocide. The fragmented chapters cross time and mix the author's experiences and recollections of her family with letters to her son written to his future self when she knows she has a terminal illness. Critically examines what it is to be a refugee and who should tell their stories - academics or the people themselves.
The layout didn't quite work in an e-book and I didn't understand why 'f's were missing from some words. Nevertheless, a book that will stay with me for some time.

Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read this e-book.
