"Amy takes us through Snow's heartbreaking, intimate journey from Vietnam to Seattle. Her story is one of resilience and one that is familiar to many of us who live in the diaspora."
-Randy Kim, award-winning host and producer of The Banh Mi Chronicles podcast
On April 30, 1975, Saigon falls and the Vietnam War ends, but Black April marks the beginning of despair for Snow, a young Vietnamese woman who finds herself abandoned by her husband and raising a baby on her own.
Based on her mother's true story of survival after the fall of Saigon, author Amy M. Le paints a gripping tale of her family's perseverance to escape persecution in war-torn Vietnam, survive the refugee camps, and rebuild a new life in America.
At the heart of this trilogy is the human spirit to survive and thrive in the midst of trauma and PTSD.
"Amy's storytelling is riveting and propulsive, inspiring us to persevere in the face of adversity."
