Ava Chin

Mott Street

A Chinese American Family's Story of Exclusion and Homecoming

• Buch mit Leinen-Einband

Produktbeschreibung

"Mott Street follows Chinese American writer Ava Chin, who grew up estranged from her father, as she seeks the truth about her family history-and uncovers a legacy of exclusion and resilience that speaks to the American experience past and present. Chin's ancestors became lovers, classmates, sworn enemies, and, eventually, through her birth, kin-all while converging at a single Chinatown address"--
