Book Description | Saigon fell to the Viet Cong on April 30, 1975. Kien Nguyen was there. He watched the last U.S. Army helicopter leave without him, without his brother, without his mother, without his grandparents. Left to a nightmarish existence in a violated and decimated country, Kien was more at risk than most because of his odd blond hair and his light eyes - because he was Amerasian. He was the most 'unwanted'. |
About the Author | Kien Nguyen was born in South Vietnam in 1967 to a Vietnamese mother and an American G.I. father. He left Vietnam in 1985 and after spending time at a refugee camp in the Phillippines, arrived in America. He is now a dentist and lives in New York City. |
