Sometimes funny, sometimes scandalous, always riveting, this extraordinary first novel traces the lives and passionate loves of the women of the Wong family through four generations. As past sins and inborn strengths are passed on from mother to daughter to granddaughter, each generation confronts, in its own way the same problems - isolation, racism, the clash of cultures - and each envolves a little bit more.
Moving back and forth between past and present, between Canada and China, SKY Lee weaves fiction and historical fact into a memorable and moving picture of a people's truggle for identity.
