520    In the first book-length study of Vietnamese American 
       literature, Isabelle Thuy Pelaud probes the complexities 
       of Vietnamese American identity and politics. She provides
       an analytical introduction to the literature, showing how 
       generational differences play out in genre and text. In 
       addition, she asks, can the term Vietnamese American be 
       disassociated from representations of the war without 
       erasing its legacy? Pelaud delineates the historical, 
       social, and cultural terrains of the writing as well as 
       the critical receptions and responses to them. She moves 
       beyond the common focus on the Vietnam war to develop an 
       interpretive framework that integrates post-colonialism 
       with the multi-generational refugee, immigrant, and 
       transnational experiences at the centre of Vietnamese 
       American narratives. Her readings of key works, such as 
       Andrew Pham's Catfish and Mandala and Lan Cao's Monkey 
       Bridge show how trauma, racism, class and gender play a 
       role in shaping the identities of Vietnamese American 
       characters and narrators.
