About this ebook:
Šis romāns ir dēla vēstule mātei, kura to nevar izlasīt. Stāstniekam, ko ģimenē dēvē par Suņuku, tuvojas trīsdesmit, un šajā vēstulē viņš runā par ģimenes vēsturi, kas sākusies jau krietnu laiku pirms viņa piedzimšanas – tās epicentrā ir Vjetnama – un ieved tādos savas dzīves nostūros, par kuriem viņa mātei nav bijis ne jausmas. Tā ne tik vien apliecina naida cauraustu, taču nenoliedzam spēcīgu dēla mīlestību pret māti, bet arī ar skaudru atklātumu runā par rasu aizspriedumiem, atkarībām, dzimumu lomām, nežēlību un traumām. Tomēr šis teksts ir līdzcietības un maiguma caurstrāvots. Tas atklāj, kādu spēku dod iespēja izstāstīt savu stāstu un cik svarīgi ir pārtraukt klusumu, tikt sadzirdētam.Oušens Vongs ar satriecošu spriedzi un smalkumu raksta par cilvēkiem, kas iesprūduši starp nošķirtām pasaulēm, un jautā, kā mums sevi glābt un dziedināt, neatsakoties no savas patības. Tas ir romāns par trauslu ģimeni, pirmo mīlestību un stāstniecības spēku, kas sniedz grēku izpirkšanu.Oušens Vongs (1988) dzimis Saigonā, Vjetnamā, pašlaik dzīvo Northemptonā, Masačūsetsā. Literatūrā ienāca kā spilgts dzejnieks, taču par īstu literāro sensāciju kļuva viņa debija prozā “Uz zemes īsu brīdi brīnišķi" (2019). Romāns nominēts visām lielākajām ASV literārajām balvām, saņēmis Vaitinga un T. S. Eliota prēmijas. Par gada labāko romānu to nosaukuši GQ, Kirkus Reviews, Booklist, Library Journal, TIME, Esquire, The Washington Post, Good Housekeeping, The New Yorker, Elle.com, The Guardian, Entertainment Weekly, The San Francisco Chronicle, Vanity Fair, The Wall Street Journal Magazine un daudzi citi ietekmīgi izdevumi.
