" Dear Da-Lê is a touching and heartfelt memoir of the Vietnam War. Imbued with a deep love of family and home, it shows us the impact that violence and a divided society has upon individual lives. This is a personal account of a past war that has immense relevance for the present." --Vincent Lam, Giller Prize-winning author of Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures "You might think you've already heard this story, but Anh Duong's harrowing journey is extraordinary, even more remarkable for his surviving to tell the tale. Epic in scope, cinematic in its writing, Dear Da-Lê bears witness to the trauma of war and the way history repeats itself. May we all learn from it." --Eric Nguyen, author of Things We Lost to the Water, "Dear Da-Lê is a touching and heartfelt memoir of the Vietnam War.

Synopsis
In an intensely revealing memoir written for his Canadian daughter, a man breaks a lifetime of silence about the traumas of his childhood in war-torn Vietnam and his years as a refugee in revolutionary Iran. Spanning decades and generations, this heartfelt memoir began as a series of letters from a worried father. Anh Duong had witnessed terrible things as a child during the Vietnam War, and later as a refugee in Iran during the revolution of the late 1970s. But like many in the Vietnamese diaspora, he had remained silent about his experiences, believing that trauma was better left unspoken. However, when his daughter became involved in student protests, Duong felt compelled to speak about his own experience of uprisings. In precise prose, Dear Da-Lê moves along a taut narrative thread that begins with Duong's birth in 1953 and ends with his arrival, frayed and broke, in Canada in 1980. With surprising moments of hope and tenderness amid brutal divisions, the author creates a coming-of-age story intertwined with the human costs of war and exile. Its revelations are sure to resonate not only with the generation born to refugees of the Vietnam War, but with anyone seeking to understand the lasting, often hidden torments of violent conflict and the healing that can take place in the act of telling., In spare, evocative prose, Anh Duoung breaks a lifetime of silence to share a rare firsthand account of growing up in war-torn Vietnam and living as a refugee in revolutionary Iran. Why, Ashley Da-Lê Duong wondered, did her father Anh name her after his childhood village in Vietnam (Da-Lê, pronounced Ya-lay) when in all other ways, he kept as much distance from it as possible? It wasn't until college, when she began participating in student protests, that Anh began to fill in the gaps of his life story, revealing for the first time his own experiences protesting in Iran and the details of his childhood in Da-Lê. Those letters became this memoir. Dear Da-Lê is Anh Duong's story, beginning in 1953 not far from the seventeenth parallel that divided North and South Vietnam, surviving the horrors of the war, escaping to revolution-wracked Iran in the late 1970s , and finally arriving in Canada in 1980. Like many in the Vietnamese diaspora, he had long remained silent about his experiences, believing that trauma was better left unspoken. Now he reveals his coming-of-age story, intertwining moments of hope and tenderness with a brutal account of the human costs of war and exile. Fifty years after the fall of Saigon, Dear Da-Lê demonstrates how one family processed intergenerational trauma and found healing through storytelling.
