Review of "On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous" on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
An astonishing beautiful novel written by a poet, which takes the form of a fictional memoir, covering the main character’s gay coming-of-age story braided in with his mother’s and grandmother’s lives in Vietnam before and during the war, which is ultimately about what it means to be alive. It won’t be for everyone, but I loved it. One of the best books I’ve read in the past 5 years.
