"The Les live in Colorado, where they have established a publishing company. Mr Le is a lexicographer. Mrs Le is a teacher. She is presently pursuing doctoral work in Asian Studies. Occasionally, Mrs Le writes for an American audience. Recently she completed work on a Gothic novel, Snow's Shadow, which incorporated material from her Alaskan childhood. Most often, however, her work is concerned with the Vietnamese community of which she is a part, as a "daughter-in-law of the Mother Country, Vietnam.'" -- p.3
