Publisher's summary

In this poignant and refreshingly authentic memoir, a daughter chronicles her parents, her siblings and herself in a multicultural life that reveals America through Chinese eyes. The story is Kathleen’s, but her daughter Carolyn helps tell it for American readers. Sentimental memories haunt these sometimes harrowing stories and recollections of generosity in the midst of poverty and prejudice, eight pound irons and endless baskets of other people’s laundry, the search for worth, the struggle for acceptance, the awkwardness of growing into womanhood, and a gracious acceptance of those ugly aspects of life that can transform us into people of dignity, character, and grace.
