The book explores the significant population movements in Vietnam, focusing on the mass exodus of over two million people from 1975 to 1992 to escape the communist regime. It delves into the earlier migration in 1954, when one million individuals fled from north to south due to war, famine, and land reforms. This earlier experience shaped the subsequent diaspora, highlighting the interconnectedness of these historical events and their lasting impact on Vietnamese identity and global migration patterns.
