Blood and Soap: Stories by Linh Dinh [in AsianWeek]

Blood and SoapWhile English is not the native tongue of Saigon-born Dinh, his mastery of his adopted language is undeniable. Throughout this most eclectic collection of shorts – some beyond short, including one-sentence stories and a summation of eight plots – Dinh reveals a refreshing sense of utter irreverence and experimental fun. A definite must-read.
