Editor's Note:
Lyhyt maallinen loistomme on pojan kirje äidille. Kirjeen kirjoittaja on parikymppinen Little Dog, ja hän kertoo äidin perheestä, Vietnamista, poissaolevasta isästä, sodan jättämistä jäljistä ja perheen taistelusta uuden elämän rakentamiseksi Yhdysvalloissa.Yksinhuoltajaäidin ja pojan suhde on vaikea mutta täynnä rakkautta. Kirjeessään lukutaidottomalle äidilleen poika uskaltaa paljastaa elämästään puolia, joista äiti ei tiedä mitään: hän kertoo rakkaudestaan kaltoinkohdeltuun Trevoriin, seksistä, huumeista, halustaan löytää kauneutta. Kertojan henkilökohtaisten kokemusten lävitse romaani laajenee käsittelemään amerikkalaisen nykytodellisuuden kipukohtia: maskuliinisuuden kriisiä, huumeongelmaa, väkivaltaa ja rasismia, rotua ja luokkaeroja.Vietnamilais-amerikkalaisen, palkitun runoilijan Ocean Vuongin esikoisromaani Lyhyt maallinen loistomme on riipaisevan intiimi kuvaus ensirakkaudesta, mieheksi kasvamisesta ja oman äänen löytämisestä. Vuong kirjoittaa ihmisistä, jotka ovat kahden eri maailman välissä, ja kysyy, kuinka voimme parantaa ja pelastaa toisemme hylkäämättä totuutta itsestämme. Vuong on saanut teoksestaan lukuisia palkintoehdokkuuksia ja kunniamainintoja sekä miltei yksimielisen ylistävän vastaanoton kriitikoilta.
