An elegy for a non-existent country explores the hypothesis that breaking ties with the past can be the path to a new identity. Through an inventive narrative and across temporal distance, it connects a Vietnamese-speaking Kosovan woman and an American soldier in Vietnam, who are surprised by a new experience with language that affects their memory and their reading of the world and relationships.
