Four generations of Japanese American women makenbsp;nbsp;their home in a large house in San Francisco,nbsp;nbsp;united by the obligations of family and tradition and,nbsp;nbsp;perhaps, by love. In alternating chapters, thenbsp;nbsp;four women--Reiko, Rio, Tomoe, and Nomi Hito--speaknbsp;nbsp;with unflinching honesty about their lives, thenbsp;nbsp;secrets that have separated mother and daughter, andnbsp;nbsp;the fierce ties of intimacy that form annbsp;nbsp;inextricable bridge between them.With the touch and powernbsp;nbsp;of a master storyteller, Julie Shigekuni gracefullynbsp;nbsp;interweaves four distinctive voices to shape anbsp;nbsp;moving story of love and the courage it requires. Innbsp;nbsp;baring the heart of one family, she illuminatesnbsp;nbsp;the truths about families, real and imagined, we allnbsp;nbsp;create. No library descriptions found. |
