Another excellent book about Chinese culture. This one is set in two worlds, one the world of Ruth Young in America in modern times and the other in the world of her mother, LuLing, back in China in the 1920 and 30's. LuLing now has Alzheimer's and Ruth discovers documents relating to her mother's past and tries to piece together the history of her family. Absolutely wonderful!
