Klappentext

An unfinished love story, humorous and haunting, of diasporic lives in Vietnam and France. Interspersed with extracts from I'm Yellow, the narrator's book-length monologue is an attempt, at once desperate, ironic, and self-deprecating, to come to terms with the passions that haunts her.
