Giới thiệu sách

The Dulang Washer is the debut novel of Paul Callan, an Irish author with a background in Malayan history. The title refers to an old term for a washerwoman who pans for tin sediment at the water's edge. The novel is set among the Hakka tin miners of Perak in the 1890s, when the tin-mining industry was booming. It tells the story of Aisha, a beautiful Malay woman who works as a dulang washer to support two families. Around her, the treacherous mine owner Fook Sin, the ambitious young Hakka miner Hun Yee, and the lonely English overseer Donald Redfern are all drawn to her. The book also touches on faith and the tensions of interracial marriage in Malaya, and was longlisted for the IMPAC Dublin Literary Award in 2013.
