Woven by Love
A Memoir by Angel Tien Le
Woven by Love is the true story of a girl growing up in a small Vietnamese village — where faith flickered, food healed, and a mother’s love stood between suffering and survival.
Told with poetic tenderness, Angel Tien Le’s debut memoir invites you into a world of jasmine tea, broken rice, scholarship dreams, secret pain, and unexpected grace.
From Vietnam to Australia, this is a journey of loss, resilience, and spiritual restoration — where each chapter is stitched with memory, food, and faith.
Woven by Love is now available in eight public libraries across Western Sydney, has been reviewed in the Australian Presbyterian Magazine, and is a candidate for the 2026 SparkLit Christian Book of the Year Award. The journey continues with an upcoming interview on Hope 103.2, where Angel will share more about the story behind the memoir.
Endorsed by readers including pastors, doctors, and academics, this memoir continues to move hearts with its honesty, beauty, and unshakable hope.
