What is it like, growing up in a small city in Southeast Asia?
'Durian Story' is the publication of the first work by the young new author Muzzy. Presented as an app-based ebook and adopting the style of children drawings, it tells a harrowing tale that is a cumulation of her own experiences growing up, and of heart-wrenching stories revealed to her by the people she met over the course of her life. The use of a 'Durian' as the protagonist of her tale, was chosen to emphasizes the unique identity and voice of the people of Southeast Asia.
This app contains the English version of the first book of the series, entitled, "Childhood".
