Nominated for numerous awards, including the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and PEN Center USA-West's annual literary award, this debut collection by a young Chinese-American writer has garnered stellar reviews and invited comparisons to Amy Tan and Maxine Hong Kingston. These stories reveal the lives of immigrant families haunted by lost loves: a ghost seduces a young girl into a flooded river; a mother commands a daughter to avenge her father's death; and a woman speaks from beyond the grave about her tragic marriage to a man whose own disappointments nearly destroy their two daughters. In luminous prose Lan Samantha Chang weaves the forces of war and magic, food and desire, ghosts and family, into haunting tales that signal the arrival of an exciting new writer and "a work of gorgeous, enduring prose" (The Washington Post).

評分一本默默無聞但是絕對值得關注的書,不僅僅是文化衝突或者傢庭矛盾,這裏有悲劇的強大力量
評分同名故事不錯:探討瞭很多主題:父女/母女,文化與記憶的代際差異和傳承,曆史傷痕。有些個動人的瞬間,但是還是不行啊,不僅僅是語言,而是一種關於“真實”的語感,在門羅麵前幾乎一敗塗地。
