Coming soon – more posts on the way. Come back soon to read more from our published authors and get a behind-the-scenes look at Jorja Publishing!
Dreaming of Home
Hong Dam (visit website) worked with the Jorja Publishing Special Interests Team to publish her first book “Dreaming of Home”.
This is an art and poetry book telling a story of love, loss & hope. Hong Dam escaped the Vietnam war and was a refugee in Hong Kong and the UK. This book is simply captivating. Hong Dam held her first solo exhibition in 2014 in Brighton, winning the runner up best show as voted by the public through the Argus newspaper.
