Description:

Aimee Phan's chilling debut collection is inspired by Operation Babylift, the evacuation of 2,000 Vietnamese orphans just weeks before the fall of Saigon. Half of the stories, told through varying viewpoints and set in Saigon in 1975, follow one such orphan's journey. The rest of the collection, set in present-day "Little Saigon" in Orange County, California, chronicles the lives of four orphans, including a model student and a gang member who preys on Vietnamese families. Passionate and beautifully written, "We Should Never Meet introduces one of "the very best of the new wave of Asian American authors" (David Wong Louie).
