In this new collection,
award-winning author Lien Chao weaves together these emotionally
charged short stories focusing on Chinese immigrants in
Toronto’s multiracial neighbourhoods. In Chinatown and mixed neighbourhoods, in condos and tenements,
in public parks and in college, the protagonists of these
stories find love, face loneliness, confront generational
crises, and overcome racial stereotypes as they evolve and grow
in this exciting, ever-changing multicultural society.
