Title: On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous
Author: Ocean Vuong
Genre: Fiction
If you love books that are beautifully written, this is for you. It is evident that “On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous” is written by a poet. The novel is a coming of age story of a queer boy in a Vietnamese family that immigrated to America. It is a love letter, of sorts, to his single mother. He breaks the rules of what he has learned of “masculinity.” He leaps into the rocky territory of vulnerability and honesty with family. He reclaims the reins of his story despite the traumas it holds. It will make you love harder and think about forgiving yourself.
