- Summary
- "The stories in The Cemetery of Chua Village explore contemporary Vietnamese society and the eternal enigmas of the human heart. The Cemetery of Chua Village gives us for the first time in English a collection from a Vietnamese master of the art of the short story. Noted for her versatility of style and her originality, she writes tales that are intensely human and universal, exploring such subjects as greed, marriage, divorce, aging, and human rights."--Jacket.
