This “moving and riveting” book shares a layered, epic, multigenerational story of the Vietnam war and its aftermath (Viet Thanh Nguyen, Pulitzer Prize winning author of  The Sympathizer )¿ With the epic sweep of Min Jin Lee’s  Pachinko  or Yaa Gyasi’s  Homegoing  and the lyrical beauty of Vaddey Ratner’s  In the Shadow of the Banyan ,  The Mountains Sing  tells an enveloping, multigenerational tale of the Tr¿n family, set against the backdrop of the Vi¿t Nam War. Tr¿n Di¿u Lan, who was born in 1920, was forced to flee her family farm with her six children during the Land Reform as the Communist government rose in the North. Years later in Hà N¿i, her young granddaughter, Huong, comes of age as her parents and uncles head off down the H¿ Chí Minh Trail to fight in a conflict that tore apart not just her beloved country, but also her family. Vivid, gripping, and steeped in the language and traditions of Vi¿t Nam,  The Mountains Sing  brings to life the human costs of this conflict from the point of view of the Vietnamese people themselves, while showing us the true power of kindness and hope. The Mountains Sing  is celebrated Vietnamese poet Nguy¿n Phan Qu¿ Mai’s first novel in English. New York Times  Editors’ Choice Selection Winner of the 2020 Lannan Literary Awards Fellowship  "[An] absorbing, stirring novel . . . that, in more than one sense, remedies history." —The  New York Times  Book Review
