Arriving in America in 1990, Little Dog and his mother, Rose, settle in Connecticut, where she makes a living providing manicures and pedicures. However, she suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, which manifests in violent outbursts against her son, alternated with gestures of absolute tenderness. Living with them is grandmother Lan, who experienced the drama of the war firsthand: having fled an arranged marriage to a much older man, she was forced to sell herself to American soldiers to survive. As he grows up, Little Dog becomes the interpreter of an impossible dialogue between the generations of his all-female family, bridging the gap for two women who do not speak English and struggle to integrate into American culture. By caring for others, Little Dog learns to know himself - from his difficult relationships with peers who target him for his differences, to the discovery of love. Acclaimed by critics as the next great American novel, \"On Earth We\u003cspan\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003ere Briefly Gorgeous\" is an extraordinary coming-of-age story that, through the loving bond between a son and a mother, speaks of identity, difference, and how we learn to inhabit our greatest emotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor: Ocean Vuong\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOcean Vuong is a Vietnamese American poet and novelist.
