Summary

Daiyu is the orphaned daughter of a once influential, now missing, family. Alone and on the streets, she must rely on her wits to discover what happened to her family.

But when Daiyu is kidnapped and smuggled from China to America, she relinquishes the future she imagined.

Over the years that follow, she is forced to reinvent herself to survive. From a calligraphy school to a San Francisco brothel, to a shop tucked into the Idaho mountains of the Wild West, we follow Daiyu on a desperate quest to outrun the tragedy that chases her. As anti-Chinese sentiment sweeps across the country in a wave of unimaginable violence, Daiyu must draw on each of the selves she has been—including the ones she most wants to leave behind—in order to finally claim her own name and story.

A great story, and an important one

When I started listening I knew very little of the book, but I was enchanted by the story very quickly. It tells an uncomfortable tale of not just the life of the main character and the woman she was named after, but also a part of history that I did not know, which is important to be remembered

Not for me

I enjoyed this book to start yet had a very difficult time finishing the book…even found myself skimming through at one point. I am sure some will enjoy but definitely not a book that I would recommend.

wow 10/10

Based on true facts surrounding the Exclusion Act and anti-chinese sentinent of the 1800's. Both beautiful and awful, another sad time in American history that's been almost forgotten except by very few historians.
10/10 from me (on audible)
