Abstract

Cop drives into Vegas, hunting down his ex-wife, who's now married to a Vietnamese crime boss. New movie? Nope, it's the plot for Vu Tran's novel. The UNLV writing fellow talks about his latest projects. He takes an introspective look at being a Vietnamese immigrant, and how it influences his writing. And he tells us what he really thinks about the local Chinatown.
