Ung Hoang Phi Dang

Ung Hoang Phi Dang crafts psychological thrillers that delve into the darkest corners of the human heart, where love and obsession intertwine like players in a deadly game of billiards. Born in the shadows of Vietnam's complex history, Phi brings a unique perspective to contemporary dark romance, exploring how trauma shapes us and how love can either heal or destroy.

His debut novel, "Massé Life," emerged from years of studying human psychology and the intricate dance between predator and prey in relationships. The billiards metaphor isn't coincidental—every shot in love, like in the game, requires precision, strategy, and the willingness to risk everything on a single, perfect moment.

Phi's writing doesn't shy away from uncomfortable truths about desire, manipulation, and the thin line between passion and destruction. His characters exist in morally gray areas where readers question their own boundaries and discover uncomfortable truths about what they're willing to accept in the name of love.

Phi believes that the best stories come from the intersection of pain and hope. His novels don't shy away from difficult topics like trauma, betrayal, and psychological healing. Instead, they offer readers a safe space to explore these emotions alongside characters who are fighting their own battles toward wholeness.

Signature Themes:

• Psychological healing and trauma recovery
• Complex romantic relationships built on mutual understanding
• Cultural identity and cross-cultural connections
• The therapeutic power of shared passions (like billiards)
• Characters who choose growth over revenge
• The thin line between obsession and devotion

Each story is crafted to challenge readers' perceptions while providing the emotional catharsis that comes from witnessing characters overcome seemingly impossible odds. The goal isn't just entertainment—it's transformation.

Phi is available for interviews, podcast appearances, and book club discussions. Topics of expertise include:
