TW Managing Editor Neva Talladen interviews Tuan Phan, author of Remembering Water: A Memoir of Departure and Return (Hidden River Press). Tuan juxtaposes his childhood memories of Vietnam and his family’s exile to the US with his parents’ recollection of the same events, finding connections and resonance in spite of the discrepancies. The memoir explores the complex questions around identity and home through the story of Tuan’s leaving and eventual return to his birthplace, where he reconnects with his father and old friends. Remembering Water is a winner of the 2018 Panther Creek Nonfiction Book Award.
