Set in Thailand from 1976 to the present, Mother, Ghost, Mango Seed is a haunting yet hopeful exploration of grief, motherhood, and cultural identity
****
A single thread can unravel a web of secrets …
Lin returns from England to Bangkok to care for her dying mother. In the city, pro-democracy protestors clash with the military government and power-hungry king. And among all this, Lin ’ s mother dies.
Numbed at the wake and feeling like a stranger in her home country, Lin tries to cook her mother ’ s favourite dish, but her mother ’ s recipes are all missing, and in their place is an old political leaflet which everyone refuses to translate. Lonely and intrigued, Lin sets off with her baby to the Thai countryside in search of answers.
As she discovers herself and her culture, Lin quickly finds that tugging at a single thread can unravel a web of secrets held for decades, driving away loved ones, breaking cultural taboos, and uncovering dreadful truths behind a devastating political past.
