内容简介
······

Inside Out and Back Again is a #1 New York Times bestseller, a Newbery Honor Book, and a winner of the National Book Award!

Inspired by the author's childhood experience as a refugee—fleeing Vietnam after the Fall of Saigon and immigrating to Alabama—this coming-of-age debut novel told in verse has been celebrated for its touching child's-eye view of family and immigration.

Hà has only ever known Saigon: the thrills of its markets, the joy of its traditions, and the warmth of her friends close by. But now the Vietnam War has reached her home. Hà and her family are forced to flee as Saigon falls, and they board a ship headed toward hope—toward America.

This moving story of one girl's year of change, dreams, grief, and healing received four starred reviews, including one from Kirkus which proclaimed it "enlightening, poignant, and unexpectedly funny."

An author's note explains how and why Thanhha Lai translated her personal experiences into Hà's story. This paperback edition also includes an interview with the author, an activity you can do with your family, tips on writing poetry, and discussion questions.

作者简介
······

赖清河,越南裔美国人,儿童文学作家。她出生在越南,后跟家人一起移民到美国。在努力学习英语的过程中,她也经历了与书中的主人公一样的困境和突破,但最终她却用英语写作了这本手法独特、语言优美的书,并因此荣获了美国儿童文学界两个非常有分量的奖项。关于这本书,她最想与读者共同探讨的一个困惑是:我们真的了解自己周围的人吗?她很希望大家在读完书后,能坐在自己至爱的家人身边,听他们讲讲以前的事,分享他们的成长故事。

评论 ······

越南反~女作家的逃亡诗集——当然,在美国得奖的书嘛。……中越战另一面……

说农历新年过年习俗的那首诗,倒是跟我们切近——所以,文化,特别是东亚地区的文化,永远大于政治派别和国别,这也是东亚人在外国能够走近的基础。

–纪念两个姓Lei的越南女生(一位是女士),想念在奥斯汀常去的那家越南菜馆和人。

没啥意思,文字看起来也很别扭,好在比较短,很快就读完了。

这本书虽然很简单,可是里面有些描写却挺刺痛人心的。从一个小孩子的角度去看当年的战争,还有新移民的困境。
