WORTH CONSUMING!
I actually started this without terribly high hopes – I just picked it up off the shelf while staying at my in-laws for the holidays – but I actually liked it very much.
The vignettes are elegantly written and intertwined. I found it very readable and perhaps especially interesting as I live in San Francisco and I could see in my mind’s eye some of the exact places and occurrences mentioned in the book.
Educational about Chinese culture and immigration and the following generation(s), but this book also resonates on a human level.
