图书描述

An intimate and poignant graphic novel portraying one family’s journey from war-torn Vietnam from debut author Thi Bui.

This beautifully illustrated and emotional story is an evocative memoir about the search for a better future and a longing for the past. Exploring the anguish of immigration and the lasting effects that displacement has on a child and her family, Bui documents the story of her family’s daring escape after the fall of South Vietnam in the 1970s, and the difficulties they faced building new lives for themselves.

At the heart of Bui’s story is a universal struggle: While adjusting to life as a first-time mother, she ultimately discovers what it means to be a parent—the endless sacrifices, the unnoticed gestures, and the depths of unspoken love. Despite how impossible it seems to take on the simultaneous roles of both parent and child, Bui pushes through. With haunting, poetic writing and breathtaking art, she examines the strength of family, the importance of identity, and the meaning of home.

In what Pulitzer Prize–winning novelist Viet Thanh Nguyen calls “a book to break your heart and heal it,” The Best We Could Do brings to life Thi Bui’s journey of understanding, and provides inspiration to all of those who search for a better future while longing for a simpler past.

原谅原生家庭的漫长过程耐心，再耐心一点。他们到美国来的梦和期望并不需要你去承担原谅他们的单纯妄想才是原谅自己

读完的第一本英文小说，虽然是graphic novel，一个很好的开始。Thi的父母真的真的太不容易了，能活下来去美国，与好运以及资源，还有家族积累都密不可分，作者也通过写这本书，更理解了父母，喜欢这种跨越时空的故事，时间上有战争做标记，空间上从越南到美国，跨越山海，喜欢。

去越南前要做点功课，我读了这本图文回忆录《尽力而为》（The Best We Could Do），作者是越南裔美国人Thi Bui，写自己和家人在越战结束后，颠沛流离逃到马来西亚难民营，然后辗转移民美国投靠亲戚，审视自己的身份认同问题以外，还反思战争对父母执拗性格的影响。我读完想起上个月和父母一起采访他们的朋友，一群参加1979年中越战争的老兵。有位老兵说：“永远不要轻易说打仗，战争能让一个国家倒退十年，还应该为受害的人负责余生。” 受害的人何止活在战火中的人呢，即便他们飘洋过海过上新生活，心理阴影也还是会笼罩下一代——《尽力而为》作者的父母就好像是第一次世界大战中的迷惘一代（Lost Generation），这种迷惘感在家庭中不断延伸，作者刻画得很入骨。

虽然很好，但没有超出我期待视阈的一本书。加上亚裔历史经历过于相似了，其实是可以relatable，但我真的对personal memoir倒向sentimental writing style（包括图画）怀有偏见。虽然我哭了，但不代表这种我很喜欢。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

因为同样属于亚洲文化，读完以后我看到了很多我们国家历史的影子，以及我家庭经历的很多故事，都有共通的时代背景和文化传统，作为我们这代人最大的幸福，就是再也不会遇到战争了~

Bitter,sorrow How much of ME is mine,and how much is predestined? The book sets me thinking the influence of original family. I long for self-independence, long for everything that my parents told me I CAN'T. Unfortunately, when I grow up , I found part of ...
