Summary
At twenty-something, Alice is eager for the milestones of adulthood: leaving home, choosing a career, finding friendship and love on her own terms. But with each step she takes, she feels the sharp tug of invisible threads: the love and worry of her parents, who want more than anything to keep her from harm. Her father fears for her safety to an extraordinary degree - but why?
As she digs further into her father’s story, Alice embarks on a journey of painful discovery: of memories lost and found, of her own fears for the future, of history and how it echoes down the years. Set in Melbourne, China and Cambodia, Her Father’s Daughter captures a father-daughter relationship in a moving and astonishingly powerful way.

"A beautiful exploration of father-daughter relationships." ( Vogue)
“Written in lucid and affecting prose, Her Father’s Daughter is ultimately a filial love song that carries with it the notes of acceptance and understanding.” ( The Australian Book Review)
"Pung has an extraordinary story to tell and the finesse to bring it, most movingly, to the page.” ( The Monthly)
