All That’s Left Unsaid: a must read debut fiction novel about heatbreaking family tragedy not to miss in 2022! : Lien, Tracey: desertcart.ae: Books

Review: The way in which this story wove together characters' pasts and perspectives made it a fascinating read. A very authentic portrayal of south-western Sydney in the 1990s. The honesty with which the author has bared the themes of racism, white saviourism and the anxieties faced by refugees and their children is remarkable. I devoured this novel very quickly and will go back for a more leisurely and reflective read.
Review: Prior to reading “All That’s Left Unsaid”, I had heard many positive reviews. My expectations had thus been set high. Perhaps too high. While the book is an enjoyable read, and we will hear more of the debut author, Tracey lien, in the future, I’m reluctant to get carried away. “All That’s Left Unsaid” is set in the 1990s in Cabramatta, in Sydney’s south west. At the time, it was the entry point for many Vietnamese refugees fleeing their homeland in search of a new life. The Vietnam War had only recently ended and many Vietnamese nationals could not reconcile with the new regime. Word of mouth suggested that Cabramatta was a good starting point and the rest, as the old saying goes, is history. At the books’ outset, there has been a horrible murder at a Vietnamese restaurant in Cabramatta. A teenage boy by the name of Denny Tran has been beaten to death. There are witnesses to the crime but none is willing to talk to the authorities. They all, allegedly, saw nothing. The boy’s older sister, Ky, is having none of this. She’s on a mission to find the truth. In the process, the reader is introduced to the crime, deprivation and heroin trafficking that was so much part of Cabramatta life in the 1990s. In this respect, Tracey Lien does a wonderful job. The characters are honest and totally believable. Having grown up in Cabramatta, Lien knows her turf and can unquestionably bring it to the page. As I said at the outset, perhaps my burden is that the book has been so hyped. Yes, it’s good. Yes, Lien will go on to write other books of quality. However, it was slightly less than I expected.
