The Girl Before HerAuthor(s): Line Papin, Adriana Hunter\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Kaya Press, United States\nImprint: Kaya Press\nISBN-13: 9781885030832, 978-1885030832\nSynopsis\nA coming-of-age tale of dislocation and inherited trauma from the acclaimed young French Vietnamese novelist\n\nFrench Vietnamese writer Line Papins stunning English-language debut, The Girl Before Her offers a window onto the existential anguish of displacement as experienced by a child on the cusp of becoming a woman. Uprooted without explanation from the sunshine and chaos of H N?i at the age of ten, the narrator finds herself adrift in the unfamiliar, gray world of France and grappling with a deep sense of uncertainty about who she is and where she belongs. Lacking the words to express her growing sense of alienation, she stops talking, then eating. She is hospitalized and almost dies from anorexia. Part meditation, part family history, part message in a bottle to her younger selves, Papins lyrica.
