It's okay as far as the coming of age in devastating but poetically exploitable circumstances genre goes. But apart from being another one in this long line of Catchers in the Rye, what's so special about #OceanVuong s #TheEmperorOfGladness?

I am in awe of the mastery in depicting a slice of ‘ordinary’ life with such emotional depth and tenderness, making seemingly mundane moments shared between an eclectic cast of characters — prime among them Hai and Grazina — profound.

The story of a tender relationship between Hai, Labas and Grazina, refugees from Vietnam and Lithuania.
Ocean Vuong: “Both Hai and Grazina are debris ejected from two horrifying geopolitical ruptures, but they are not trash”

He makes poetry out of grief, quiet desperation and struggle. Always blown away by the beauty of his writing but I gotta admit it really affects my mood after. Still, a solid read #oceanvuong #booksky #theemperorofgladness

I want to adopt both #DemonCopperhead and #TheEmperorofGladness and give them a clean room and a decent meal and a big hug. These books are hurting my ovaries.

The thing about #OceanVuong whether writing or speaking is, I feel my humanity being knit together a little stronger as I read or listen. It’s visceral & I need the sturdiness of the particular beauty he creates.
