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.

評分想要瞭解溫哥華曆史,尤其是華人社區史的讀者,Sky Lee的這本書就像一本傢庭史詩,糾集著華人、土著、白人之間三代人的悲歡離閤。大量的場景使得在溫哥華住過的人都會覺得如此熟悉。比如english bay。我是很少看小說的人,但這本小說,page to page讀完瞭。
