At his villa, a general of the South Vietnamese army is drinking whiskey and, with the help of his trusted captain, drawing up a list of those who will be given passage aboard the last flights out of the country. The general and his compatriots start a new life in Los Angeles, unaware that one among their number, the captain, is secretly observing and reporting on the group to a higher-up in the Viet Cong. "The Sympathizer" is the story of this captain: a man brought up by an absent French father and a poor Vietnamese mother, a man who went to university in America, but returned to Vietnam to fight for the Communist cause.]]></description><link>https://woodstock.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4191285</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://woodstock.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4191285</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nguyen, Viet Thanh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://woodstock.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4191285192</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780802123459/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Committed]]></title><description><![CDATA["The Committed follows the "man of two minds" as he comes to Paris as a refugee. There he and his blood brother Bon try to escape their pasts and prepare for their futures by turning their hands to capitalism in one of its purest forms: drug dealing. No longer in physical danger, but still inwardly tortured by his re-education at the hands of his former best friend, and struggling to assimilate into a dominant culture, the Sympathizer is both charmed and disturbed by Paris. As he falls in with a group of left-wing intellectuals and politicians who frequent dinner parties given by his French Vietnamese "aunt," he finds not just stimulation for his mind but also customers for his merchandise-but the new life he is making has dangers he has not foreseen. Both literary thriller and brilliant novel of ideas, The Committed is a blistering portrayal of commitment and betrayal that will cement Viet Thanh Nguyen's position in the firmament of American letters."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://woodstock.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4223578</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://woodstock.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4223578</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nguyen, Viet Thanh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://woodstock.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4223578192</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780802157065/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
