Born between two worlds-one torn by war, the other full of promise. But, belonging to either was never guaranteed.
In Made in Vietnam, Elaine shares a hauntingly beautiful memoir of identity, resilience, and the long shadow of family secrets. Born in the U.S. to a Vietnamese mother who fled just before the fall of Saigon and an American father from Minnesota who served in the war, she grew up navigating a delicate tightrope between cultures, expectations, and silence.
With raw honesty, Elaine unfolds the untold story of her mother's escape, her father's quiet dignity, and the generational wounds that shaped her own becoming. From childhood confusion to spiritual awakening, from shame to self-worth, Made in Vietnam is more than a personal story-it's a mirror for anyone who has ever wondered, Where do I come from and who am I allowed to be?
A story of survival, sacrifice, and soul-searching, this journey will resonate with multicultural families, immigrants, and third-culture individuals, or anyone yearning to break cycles, find healing, and reclaim their voice.
Spanning decades and continents, Elaine explores the quiet strength of women, the invisible cost of silence, and the power of embracing one's heritage. With grace and the heart of a daughter, she invites readers into her most intimate truths-without shame, without filter.
"Discovering that the story we most resist telling is the one that finally sets us free."
