First title in CHP’s new NVLA series: "Experimental books about death" meets the beach read! Novellas are the perfect size to tuck in a tote bag with your towel and sunscreen, or in your carry-on for the plane ride. Expect the same unusual stories and inventively crafted language that you would from any CHP book—just in miniature! Beloved author with strong sales and publicity record: Review coverage for Trafik was enthusiastic and diverse, spanning literary channels like Kirkus and popular websites like Buzzfeed. Ducornet has a devoted fan base of independent booksellers and readers.Timely themes: Explores ideas about freedom and captivity, acts of protest, human dignity, and the importance of beauty during crises.

Nghiem Tran's debut inverts the haunted house tale, shaping it into a moving exploration of loss, coming of age in a collapsing world, and the battle between isolation and assimilation"--
