ABOUT CAROLINE VU

Born in Vietnam, Caroline Vu spent her childhood in Saigon during the height of the Vietnam War. She left Saigon in 1970, moving first to the US then to Canada. Her childhood memories of war-torn Vietnam and integration into North American life have inspired her two novels: Palawan Story, published by Deux Voiliers Publishing, and That Summer in Provincetown, published in English by Guernica Editions in May 2015 and in French by Éditions de la Pleine Lune in September 2016. Palawan Story was a finalist for the 2014 Concordia University First Book Prize, the 2015 International Book Award and the 2018 City of Montreal Literary Diversity Prize (for the French translation). In 2016, Palawan Story won the inaugural Fred Kerner Award for the best overall book written by a member of the Canadian Authors Association. A passionate traveller, Vu’s travel stories of exotic destinations have been published in the Doctor’s Review. She has published other stories and articles in the Medical Post, the Toronto Star, the Montreal Gazette, the Geneva Times and the Tico Times (Costa Rica). Caroline is also a family doctor, who currently works in Montreal.

Caroline Vu is a member in good standing of the Quebec Writers Federation and the Canadian Authors Association.
