SUMMARY:Kevin Nguyen
DESCRIPTION:Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle Presentation — Mỹ Documents: A Novel by Kevin Nguyen \nUrsula\, Alvin\, Jen\, and Duncan grew up as cousins in the sprawling Nguyen family. As young adults\, they’re on the precipice of new ventures: Ursula as a budding journalist in Manhattan\, Alvin as an engineering intern for Google\, Jen as a naïve freshman at NYU\, and Duncan as a promising newcomer on his high school football team. Their lives are upended when a series of violent\, senseless attacks across America creates a national panic\, prompting a government policy that pushes Vietnamese Americans into internment camps. Jen and Duncan are sent with their mother to Camp Tacoma while Ursula and Alvin receive exemptions.  \nCut off entirely from the outside world\, forced to work jobs they hate\, Jen and Duncan try to withstand long\, dusty days in camp and acclimate to life without the internet. That is\, until Jen discovers a way to get messages to the outside. Her first instinct is to reach out to Ursula\, who sees this connection as a chance to tell the world about the horrors of camp—and as an opportunity to bolster her own reporting career in the process.  \nInformed by real-life events\, from Japanese incarceration to the Vietnam War and modern-day immigrant detention\, Kevin Nguyen’s novel gives us a version of reality only a few degrees away from our own. Moving and finely attuned to both the brutalities and mundanities of racism\, Mỹ Documents is a strangely funny and touching portrait of American ambition\, fear\, and family. The story of the Nguyens is one of resilience and how we return to one another\, and to ourselves\, after tragedy.  \nKevin Nguyen is the author of the novel New Waves. He is the features editor at The Verge and was previously a senior editor at GQ. He lives in Brooklyn.  \nNguyen will replace the previously announced Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle author Angie Thomas\, who was originally scheduled for August 7. Her book\, Blackout\, remains a 2025 CLSC selection.
