Memories From Books on Booklikes
Always a reader. Writing to remember and to share my thoughts on the books I read.
The Frangipani Hotel
In the Frangipani Hotel, Violet Kupersmith brings to life nine tales of her native Vietnam. The stories are ghost stories based on old Vietnamese folk tales and legends. This book reinterprets the stories into a more modern world – the one after the Vietnam War and incorporating the Vietnamese immigrant experience. The stories are not really scary, but very atmospheric. An interesting debut that will make me look for her next work.
