Hmong Refugee's Death Fugue - Sheng-mei Ma

"The author of this literary analysis pieces together accounts from oral histories, academic literature, popular works and Hmong storycloths to describe the 'death fugue' associated with the early narratives of the Hmong refugee experience in Southeast Asia and the United States."

The section on Hmong storycloths is pp. 14-29, but the entire article should be read for full understanding; includes pictures.
