Condition: Muy bueno. : En su aclamada novela debut, Khuê Pham narra la conmovedora historia de una familia vietnamita dividida por la guerra y el exilio. La protagonista, una joven de treinta años llamada Kiêu (aunque prefiere Kim para sus amigos en Berlín), nunca se había interesado por el pasado de sus padres, quienes emigraron a Alemania en 1968. Sin embargo, un mensaje de Facebook de su tío en California sobre la apertura del testamento de su abuela la obliga a emprender un viaje de revelaciones personales y familiares.A través de una narrativa que conecta Berlín con California y Vietnam, la autora explora temas de identidad, pertenencia y las cicatrices invisibles del conflicto de Vietnam. La obra ha sido elogiada por la crítica alemana como una voz fresca y necesaria que ofrece una perspectiva enriquecedora sobre la migración y la búsqueda de las propias raíces en el siglo XXI.
