April 30, 2025 marks 50 years since the end of the Vietnam War — and a 50-year process of healing. For those in Vietnam and across the Vietnamese diaspora, these decades have been fraught with the complexities of post-war recovery and cultural identity. Three newly released books from Three Rooms Press offer powerful perspectives on this enduring legacy: The Colors of April, My Vietnam, Your Vietnam, and Việt Nam Của Con, Việt Nam Của Cha. All three titles provide thought-provoking subjects for author interviews, and perfect for Vietnam-focused book roundups.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --

Dear editor/producer,

Three newly released books from Three Rooms Press offer powerful perspectives on the enduring legacy of the Vietnam War and its Diaspora as the 50th anniversary of the end of the war approaches.

April 30, 2025 marks 50 years since the end of the Vietnam War — and a 50-year process of healing. For those in Vietnam and across the Vietnamese diaspora, these decades have been fraught with the complexities of post-war recovery and cultural identity.

Three newly released books from Three Rooms Press offer powerful perspectives on this enduring legacy:

The Colors of April – A moving fiction anthology that brings together multiple generations of Vietnamese and Vietnamese American writers reflecting on the war's lasting imprint.

My Vietnam, Your Vietnam – A deeply personal intergenerational memoir, co-authored by Christina Võ and Nghĩa M. Võ, that explores the ways war, displacement, and identity shape both father and daughter.

Việt Nam Của Con, Việt Nam Của Cha – The Vietnamese translation of My Vietnam, Your Vietnam — makes these important reflections accessible to a wider audience.

All three titles provide thought-provoking subjects for author interviews, and perfect for Vietnam-focused book roundups. I look forward to discussing media coverage this spring.

My best,
Emma
