Mark is a proud Western PA native but has lived most of the last twenty years in Vietnam, Malaysia, and Saudi Arabia. His overseas experiences have redefined everything including his palate, his outlook on life, and naturally his writing.

He has written ten novels, including his brand new Forgotten Child Trilogy.

His interests cast a wide net - from politics to literature - to culture and language - to history and religion - making his writing infused with the unexpected as he seeks to tell authentic and engaging stories about people from all walks of life. His writing is straightforward and accessible to all, especially those who enjoy writing injected with doses of culture, history

Quotes by Mark W. Sasse  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“An unbridled pursuit of justice will never stand on moral pillars but will eventually sink to the same morally-bankrupted motive which caused the need for justice in the first place. At that point, the pursuit becomes nothing but a personal quest to justify one’s own anger and refusal to live life once again. This became the reality of the shell of a man known as Thuy’s father. Thang stood firmly on a collision course with death. Nothing else could satisfy the bitterness. Neighbors, once sympathetic, backed away, frightened that his angst might engulf and destroy”
Mark W. Sasse, The Reach of the Banyan Tree

“But you must understand something. Marriage for a Vietnamese girl like me is much more than just my wants and desires. Family is the most important thing in my life, and I must honor my family, even in marriage. I could never marry you without my father’s blessing.”
Mark W. Sasse, The Reach of the Banyan Tree
