The Sea of Trees

by YannickMurphy (Author)

Synopsis

In what was Indochina, subsequently Vietnam, one girl's war takes place. Little from the outside world intrudes; there is hardly any news from Europe, merely the immediate presence of the invading Japanese, and the distant hope of rescue, the certainty of suffering.

Media Reviews
Murphy ... offers a vision that is deeply subjective without being deeply interior. Her story unfolds through a dreamlike progression of glinting surfaces, telling gestures and precisely rendered moments in which matter-of-fact horror butts up against absurdist hilarity.... Murphy imbues her world, ultimately, with a lush timelessness, shot through with surprising buoyancy and hope.
