On Earth, We’re Briefly Gorgeous
By Ocean Vuong

The debut novel by the Vietnamese-American poet Ocean Vuong is a gorgeous work of self-discovery. With a beautiful and graceful style, the author writes about people caught between two different worlds and how we can heal one another without giving up on who we are. The novel is written in a form of a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read revealing a family’s history that began before he was born and the mother knows nothing about. On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is longlisted for the 2019 National Book Award for Fiction, the Carnegie Medal in Fiction, the 2019 Aspen Words Literacy Prize, and the PEN/Hemingway Debut Novel Award. It is also Shortlisted for the 2019 Center for Fiction First Novel Prize and is a Winner of the 2019 New England Book Award for Fiction.

The story explores a golden question: Would you ever travel back in time? Who would you meet, and what would you like to change?
