Black and white photographic plates, 294pp, paperback, bookseller's label on lower cover, good copy. "Ling Wang's family endured persectuion and forced labour camps under the shadow of Mao's political campaigns while Ling herself battled chronic illness. But these hardships only steeled her fiery sense of justice, fuelling her determination to become a judge. Through resolute hard work she succeeded at the age of just 27, only to find herself resented by some male colleagues. Her conviction that everyone was equal before the law put her frequently at odds with her superiors. And in going aginst the belief that real women had a husband and family, not a career, she seemed set to remain single for life. Until something remarkable happened." (Publisher's description).

Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Some very light shelf wear only. In 1979, Nam Le's family left Vietnam for Australia, an experience that inspires the first and last stories in The Boat. In between, however, Le's imagination lays claim to the world. The Boat takes us from a tourist in Tehran to a teenage hit man in Colombia; from an ageing New York artist to a boy coming of age in a small Victorian fishing town; from the city of Hiroshima just before the bomb is dropped to the haunting waste of the South China Sea in the wake of another war. Each story uncovers a raw human truth. Each story is absorbing and fully realised as a novel. Together, they make up a collection of astonishing diversity and achievement.
First Edition; Med. 8vo; pp. (viii), 322; illustrated endpapers, b/w illustrations, select bibliography, index, bound in original black cloth, title lettered in white on spine and upper board, dustjacket, a fine copy.
