She Weeps Each Time You're Born (31 page)

The interlude “The old songs seem so foreign to us now” on
this page
is the Vietnamese national anthem.

On page 256 the opening line is taken from C. D. Wright's
One with Others
.

Some language, which occurs most often in interludes, originally appeared in Quan Barry's poetry collection titled
Water Puppets
, published by the University of Pittsburgh Press in 2011.

The language of governmental charges against Rabbit was taken from the 2011 International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) report “Rule of Law or Rule
by
Law? Crime and Punishment in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam,” which can be found at
