Or is it a love story? A detective tale? Moving from 1930s Hanoi through a series of never-ending wars and displacements to Saigon, Paris, Melbourne and Cambridge, Anam is a novel about memory and inheritance, colonialism and belonging, home and exile. Anam blends fiction and essay, theory and everyday life to imagine that which has been repressed, left out, and forgotten.
