Ambientada en la década de 1970 durante la guerra de Vietnam y en el presente, 'Perros en el perímetro' explora las vidas de los supervivientes del genocidio camboyano. La novela sigue a Janie, una neuroquímica que vive en Montreal, atormentada por recuerdos fragmentados de su infancia en Camboya. A medida que intenta reconstruir su pasado, se ve obligada a enfrentarse a los horrores que presenció y a las pérdidas que sufrió. La historia entrelaza el viaje de Janie con las experiencias de otros supervivientes, revelando las profundas cicatrices que la guerra y el genocidio dejaron en sus vidas.
Madeleine Thien is a Canadian short story writer and novelist. The Oxford Handbook of Canadian Literature has considered her work as reflecting the increasingly trans-cultural nature of Canadian literature, exploring art, expression and politics inside Cambodia and China, as well as within diasporic East Asian communities. Thien's critically acclaimed novel, Do Not Say We Have Nothing, won the 2016 Governor General's Award for English-language fiction, the Scotiabank Giller Prize, and the Edward Stanford Travel Writing Awards for Fiction. It was shortlisted for the 2016 Man Booker Prize, the 2017 Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction, and the 2017 Rathbones Folio Prize. Her books have been translated into more than 25 languages.
