Ann Nguyen was born and raised in Hanoi, Vietnam, in a middle-class family of four. Growing up as war children, her parents were neglected by their parents and later on, constantly found themselves struggling to meet the family's physical needs. Their rough childhoods and distorted beliefs about peace manifested in Ann's self-perception and romantic relationship. When Ann moved to Germany, she experienced first-hand the conflicting narratives of Vietnamese history taught at her university and the one she had believed in for 20 years. This disruption results in her questioning the relationship with her parents, as well as the repeating destructive patterns of all previous failed romantic relationships. Her background in literature and language from 12 years of school comes in handy as she translates this journey into poetry.
