Build Your House Around My Body

Two women go missing in Vietnam twenty-five years apart. Their fates are bound together by ghosts and ancestors, by lands and bodies possessed. Barrelling through the sweaty nightclubs of Saigon to the haunted forests of Vietnam's Central Highlands, Violet Kupersmith's heart-pounding fever dream of a novel deftly combines Vietnamese history and folklore in a playful, utterly unforgettable debut. Part-puzzle, part-ghost story, part-revenge tale, one of the most hotly anticipated debuts of 2021.
