Titre : Ru Editeur : London [Royaume-Uni] : The Clerkenwell Press, 2012 Note générale : A runaway bestseller in Quebec, with foreign rights sold to 15 countries around the world, Kim Thúy's Governor General's Literary Award-winning Ru is a lullaby for Vietnam and a love letter to a new homeland. Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Français (fre) Résumé : Ru. In Vietnamese it means lullaby; in French it is a small stream, but also signifies a flow - of tears, blood, money. Kim Thúy's Ru is literature at its most crystalline: the flow of a life on the tides of unrest and on to more peaceful waters. In vignettes of exquisite clarity, sharp observation and sly wit, we are carried along on an unforgettable journey from a palatial residence in Saigon to a crowded and muddy Malaysian refugee camp, and onward to a new life in Quebec. There, the young girl feels the embrace of a new community, and revels in the chance to be part of the American Dream. As an adult, the waters become rough again: now a mother of two sons, she must learn to shape her love around the younger boy's autism. Moving seamlessly from past to present, from history to memory and back again, Ru is a book that celebrates life in all its wonder: its moments of beauty and sensuality, brutality and sorrow, comfort and comedy.

Titre : Beau (is Non-Binary of Everything) Auteurs : ลาดิด Ladys, Auteur Editeur : Bangkok [Thaïlande] : That Frog Books, 2021 Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Thaï (tha) Résumé : "The angel has black wings, likes an orange cat, and purple Tutti Fruttis." A young artist was befriended by an angel before she could draw. The angel that wandered through the eternity and unable to fully comprehend humans in all their complexities yet sense all their emotions-after all, "Joy echoes a ringing bell. Sorrow is the whisking winds in the smell of mud. Pain has a piercing scream. Expectation whistles like the wind on the mountain top..." The story of loss, loneliness, and self-discovery. Beau (is Non-Binary of Everything) has first emerged as a sensation among the online independent book readers community, especially the young Thai LGBTQ community. The story captures the tormenting loneliness of young adults and the existential void. The story follows Kwon Cho, a young artist, trying to make art that lives eternally beyond her ephemeral life. She is befriended by Beau, an angel, a non-binary being that learns the complexity and absurdity of human life for the first time through Kwon Cho. Through Beau, we step closer to understanding life, self-love, friendship, and art. And without a gender lens, it all just is...beautiful as it is.
