Voices and Visions sweeps the reader along on Carolijn Visser's four-month journey through Vietnam and gives voice to the remarkable cast of characters - from prostitutes to princesses, from soldiers to singers, from peasants to priests - who inhabit Vietnam today. Join Visser as she roams the Mekong Delta, wanders through Saigon and Hanoi, ventures into the Central Highlands and explores the old imperial capital of Hue - and discover a country ravaged by decades of war but fortified by its history, its culture, its geography, its vision for the future and its people.
