Description
Beginning in Saigon during the Vietnam War and ending in present day New York, Catinat Boulevard tells the story of two friends Mai and Mai Ly. While Mai flirts with American GIs in rowdy bars along Catinat Boulevard, Mai Ly joins the communist resistance in the jungle. The story also follows Nat, Mai’s half Vietnamese-half African-American son abandoned in a Saigon orphanage.

Ian S, Media/Journalist
Catinat Boulevard is one of the most touching novels I have ever read. Told from a child's perspective, it recreates a world lost to history, a world where love, adventure and rebellion reigned free despite the ravages of destruction. Among the many Vietnamese writers in North America today, Caroline stands out for her daring humour, her challenges to social conventions and her evocative prose.
