True Experiences as Immigrant, Artist and Political prisonerRedwood City, California-
Those who dare to take a stand and act on their beliefs often find themselves
in a lonely place, subjected to ridicule and persecution. Bright has traveled
that road for most of his life, from his war-torn homeland of Vietnam to the shores of America. He
shares his remarkable story and unique views on life in two books: Road to the
United States Part I and Part 2 (both available through Authorhouse).“I have forgiven others often, but
I have never forgiven myself,” writes Quang. His books chronicle more than 50
years of hardships suffered as a result of war and hated of others. At the same
time, they deliver thought-provoking ideological views and predictions of a
future America
that Quang has gathered from his observations of political, economic and
sociological factors in a rapidly changing world.Quang relates his early education
and artistic training, and mixed with these anecdotes are horrifying accounts
of his family’s brush with communist spies and his own experience as a
political prisoner. After living in Saigon in the 1980 s, Quang “inched toward
escape,” eventually making his way to the United States. Along the way, he
recorded his observations and distilled these into stories and poetry.The concluding chapters of this
two-part series address his decision to come to the United States and the opportunities
and future struggles he faced. Quang also includes and analysis of many facets
of American life and predictions for the fate of the country. Historical background, social and
political analysis and guidelines on how to live a virtuous life all await
readers’ discovery in two intriguing books: Road to the Unites States part I
and Part 2.Bright Quang is the pen name for

H. House reviewed booksRoad to United States of America chronicles
moments of his experience, combining personal anecdotes with an
investigation
of patriotism as a concept. Following his idea of “ three ways of
learning:
seeing much, suffering much, and studying much,” Bright Quang recounts
his
impressions of range of positions, from “a lieutenant of South Vietnam
government and a Vietnamese artist” to a student at California State
University. Along the way Bright Quang draws upon an understanding of
political, economic, and sociological factors that may have underscored
roughly
the latter half of the twentieth century and beyond.In 1959, Bright
graduated
elementary school and quickly transferred to high school in Quang Ngai
City, typically walking about fifteen
miles each way until his brother donated his bike to Bright. A degree of
turmoil emerging in Vietnam
begins to touch Bright Quang’s family and one night during dinner his
father
tells about “a network of the Vietnamese Communist spies.” “His
relationship
with Perfume and his educational goal.”
Stood in jeopardy of being “interrupted by the unreasonable war.” Bright
decided to transfer to Hue College of Arts to study in art. Along the
way
Bright met Mercury, who offered to share room, to her rental.In 1973,
the American and Korean
soldiers gathered all of the villagers living in the Communist military
supervision, including Bright’s mother, relatives and friends, sending
them to
the free area of South
 Vietnam. As the work progresses, Bright
relates a series of encounters, some of which test his level of resolve
in one way or another. At one point while Bright was leaving the war
zone, he went
hiking in the mountains and encountered an infantry Division of the new
Vietnamese
revolution…and the vanguard company arrested Bright. Bright met their
leader
and told him, “I now am seeking freedom because I could not live
together with
the cruel Vietnamese Communist government which was an unjust cause.” He
apparently aided Bright to seek the sail of refuge, providing a boat and
he
said, “Before your face is Malaysia,
on your right is Thailand,
and left is Singapore.”In 1980, Bright lived in Saigon for a time,
worked as a sculptor. As Bright inched
toward escape, reviewed public opinion, often filtered his responses
into his
poems and stories.The concluding chapters of his
“Road to the United States of America”
describe his decision to leave Vietnam
in 1993, largely spurred by a goal “to gain freedom of speech, thoughts,
and to
recapture a dream.” Later Bright analyzes various facets of American
society,
from morality to factors that may have underscored participation in
World
War II. As a Vietnamese sculptor, poet, and ex-political prisoner of
conscience, Bright provides a potentially and often-candid glimpse at
the
concept of America.
Overall his offering is designed to communicate points of his own
journey as
express an interest in a related topic.“My Torch” presents a collection
of thoughts exploring the layers of emotion sometimes defining the human
condition,
particularly in regard to what may be viewed as difficult circumstances.
Having “saved” your work by apparently burying it during a “six-year
concentration camp incarnation,” You consider the people and ideas that
may
have influenced your “my perspective in one way or another. Along the
way you
highlight qualities relating to identity, belief, and love in various
forms.Several selections incorporate a
spiritual approach. For example, I Love Sunlight,” “A Gull’s Friend,”
and “The
Helpless Life” refer to elements of nature as if to place the individual
within
a relatively broader context of being. Other entries such a “The Fire of
Love”
and A Night of Love-sickness” delves into the feeling usually associated
with romance.
Turning to slightly more public matters, “A Homeless Child” and Dreaming
of
Peace” draw upon personal notions of social responsibility, patriotism,
and
democracy. Aspects of your experience inform much of the text, with
pieces
including,” Saigon at Night, “My Countrymen,”
and Ten years of Tribulation,” suggesting how a person’s sense of self
might
occur as a function of place, vocation, or human interaction. Later,
“I’m a
Sculptor” hinges on a similar theme: In Heaven’s own light the sculptor
shone

I catch that angle of vision.

Sculptor of life is I, as I stand

With my life uncovers before me

Waiting for the hour when, at
God’s command

My life dreams passed over me…
