"Vietnam, January, 1968. As the citizens of Hue are preparing to celebrate Tet, the
start of the Lunar New Year, Nhã Ca arrives in the city to attend her father's funeral.
Without warning, war erupts all around them, drastically changing or cutting short
their lives. After a month of fighting, their beautiful city lies in ruins and thousands
of people are dead. Mourning Headband for Hue tells the story of what happened during
the fierce North Vietnamese offensive and is an unvarnished and riveting account of
war as experienced by ordinary people caught up in the violence"
