Sometimes funny, sometimes scandalous, always compelling, this extraordinary first novel chronicles the women of the Wong family from frontier railroad camps to modern-day Vancouver. 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, and the clash of cultures. Moving effortlessly between past and present, between North America and China, Sky Lee weaves fiction and historical fact into a memorable and moving picture of a people's struggle for identity.

評分(2014年10月8日標記的想讀,兜兜轉轉還是迴來瞭)看到這麼多好評..真是不忍心說:這是一部渣作啊!!是"go die"的鼻祖!!在花樣翻新b-word, c-word的同時,強行加入女權主義;強行變身metafiction,強行說理,強行深沉,強行亂倫...強行嵌入莫名其妙的修飾語...簡直活脫脫另一個Magrete Atwood..不要總拿“非綫性敘事”當幌子寫一些不入流的傢族史,還要冠上民族大義. 西湖的水我的淚,為什麼我要花錢買這本書..已經決定把它送給我下一個最恨的人....
