Description

Set in San Francisco’s Chinatown, this poignant novel follows three Chinese American sisters as they struggle to understand their family’s grief and the choices that have shaped their lives. Through the perspectives of Leila, Ona, and Nina, the story explores the tensions between immigrant parents and American-born children, tradition and independence, and silence and self-expression. With lyrical, intimate prose, it offers a deeply human portrait of family, cultural identity, memory, and the enduring bonds of sisterhood.
