"The Magic Fish" is a graphic novel by Trung Le Nguyen. It's a beautifully illustrated story about a Vietnamese-American boy named Tiến who uses fairy tales to communicate with his immigrant mother about his struggles with his identity and coming out as gay.
It's a touching and heartfelt exploration of family, culture, and love.
Tiến is gay but finds it challenging to come out to his traditional mother, who only speaks Vietnamese.
To bridge the gap, Tiến turns to fairy tales, which he reads to his mother, hoping she'll understand his feelings.
As the story unfolds, it explores themes of identity, family, and the power of storytelling to navigate difficult conversations and connect with loved ones.
