Story
In this classic account of the French war in Indochina, Bernard B. Fall vividly captures the sights, sounds, and smells of the savage eight-year conflict in the jungles and mountains of Southeast Asia from 1946 to 1954. The French fought well to the last, but even with the lethal advantages of airpower, they could not stave off the Communist-led Vietnamese nationalists, who countered with a hit-and-run campaign of ambushes, booby traps, and nighttime raids. Defeat came at Dien Bien Phu, in 1954, setting the stage for American involvement and opening another tragic chapter in Vietnam's history.

Story
Hippies wear beads, demonstrators march against the Vietnam War, and the world waits to see the first human steps on the moon's surface. But at Gibbers Creek, Jed Kelly sees ghosts, from the past and future, at the Drinkwater billabong where long ago the swaggie leaped to his defiant death. But is 17-year-old Jed a con artist or a survivor? When she turns up at Drinkwater Station claiming to be the great-granddaughter of Matilda Thompson's dying husband, Jed clearly has secrets. As does a veteran called Nicholas, who was badly wounded in the Vietnam War.

Story
Avril 1975, Saïgon est en plein chaos. À l'abri d'une villa, entre deux whiskies, un général de l'armée du Sud Vietnam et son capitaine dressent la liste de ceux qui pourront quitter le pays par les derniers avions. Mais ce que le général ignore, c'est que son capitaine est un agent double au service des communistes. Arrivé en Californie, tandis que le général et ses compatriotes exilés tentent de recréer un petit bout de Vietnam sous le soleil de L.A., notre homme observe et rend des comptes dans des lettres codées à son meilleur ami resté au pays.

Story
Zazoo, almost 14, is Vietnamese by birth but feels entirely French. She lives with her adoptive grandfather, who brought her form Vietnam to his village in France when she was just two years old. Life with Grand-Pierre has always been filled with poetry and shared adventure, following the predictable rhythms of the season. Then one misty October morning, a boy on a bicycle rides into Ago's small French village and asks a question from which many stories begin to unfold.

Story
Absaroka, dans le Wyoming, est le comté le moins peuplé de l'État le moins peuplé d'Amérique. Y découvrir le corps d'une jeune Asiatique étranglée est plus que déconcertant. Le coupable paraît tout désigné quand on trouve, à proximité, un colosse indien frappé de mutisme en possession du sac à main de la jeune femme. Mais le shérif Walt Longmire n'est pas du genre à boucler son enquête à la va-vite. D'autant que le sac de la victime contient une vieille photo de Walt prise quarante ans plus tôt, et qui le renvoie à ses souvenirs de la guerre du Vietnam.

Story
"Mission à Paris 1990" raconte comment un magnat américain des médias, Robert Samberg, lié dans sa jeunesse à l'avenir du Vietnam en 1968, est recruté pour servir son pays, sans se douter un instant que sa mission d'évaluation des possibilités de réconciliation politique le conduira sur la voie d'une réconciliation personnelle. À la veille de son plus grand triomphe professionnel, il retrouve My Hanh, une Vietnamienne qu'il a passionnément aimée puis perdue de vue depuis longtemps, et apprend qu'ils ont un fils.

Story
Mon prénom, Bào Vi, illustrait l'intention de mes parents de "protéger la plus petite". Si l'on traduit littéralement, je suis "Précieuse minuscule microscopique". Comme dans la plupart des cas au Vietnam, je n'ai pas su être à l'image de mon nom. Souvent, les filles qui s'appellent "Blanche" ou "Neige" ont le teint très foncé, et les garçons nommés "Puissance" ou "Fort" craignent les grandes épreuves. Quant à moi, je grandissais sans cesse, dépassant de loin la moyenne et, du même élan, me projetant en dehors des normes.
