I was the one who raised the question to the author asking if she was one of the main characters in the book....hahaha...the question was too tough for her to answer....hahaha
Vera gave an impressive presentation introducing herself and what led her to write the book. The English version is very well written and is highly recommended to English speaking readers. Although I have not read the Chinese version, I believe it must be good as it is an award-winning novel (榮獲華僑聯合總會文藝教育基金會的華文著述- 文藝創作小說類首獎). I heard the author wanted to publish the book in Vietnamese language in Vietnam as well. Unfortunately the needed permit has been denied by the Vietnamese authority.
I urge this webpage readers to buy a copy of the book as a way to show your support of Vera.
Sean asked very good and very tough question! I am glad Sean likes the talk and the reading. Thanks so much for doing the video. Several friends asked if I can post it on UTUBE. But I think it exceeds the time limit for UTUBE. Is it possible to do a bit editing and make it into different parts, then post them on UTUBE?
