About The Book
In "N/A," we follow the remarkable and heartbreaking journey of Na Ga, a young woman in search of a better life, yet constantly thwarted by betrayal, hardship, and isolation. From her humble beginnings as a rural eel-catcher to being abandoned by her would-be rescuers in Rangoon, Na Ga’s life is a sequence of unfulfilled promises and stolen hopes.

As a teenager, she moves to Thailand in search of a new beginning, only to find herself once again faced with betrayal and violation. Despite all this, Na Ga’s fighting spirit remains intact, but the question arises: for how long can she belong nowhere and to no one?

The book's narrative takes a poignant turn when, in the dimly lit hotel room in Wanting, a Godforsaken town on the Chinese-Burmese border, Na Ga confronts her compulsion to keep running. Forced to reflect on her journey, she struggles to understand why, until now, she has resisted returning home.

This emotional and soul-searching biography captures the indomitable will of a woman grappling with her past while searching for a place to call her own.
