Industry Reviews
"Probably only in heaven will this book be a bestseller. But 'Slander' takes up residence in the emotions of the reader and creates a literary country one wants to visit and revisit."
Washington Post Book World - Thomas McGonigle (03/02/1997)
"What could be a jumping-off point for a predictable analysis of post-colonial isolation becomes something more intimate as the protagonist probes the way she has willfully distanced herself from her family....Reminiscent of Marguerite Duras's novel 'The Lover,' Ms. Le's book offers proof that alienation, in the right hands, can be exquisite."
