Each story feels complete, though I could spend more time in them as well; each fits well enough to make this collection feel intentional. ( ) I am reminded of the song "Is That All There is?", You marry, not necessarily for love, maybe raise children, maybe have a job but each day is just another foot in front of the other until you die. I can grasp that there is some beauty to the writing but I was left with just a feeling of great emptiness. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"A long-married couple is forced to confront their friend's painful past when a church revival comes to a nearby town... A woman in an arranged marriage struggles to connect with the son she hid from her husband for years... A well-meaning sister unwittingly reunites an abuser with his victims... Through the lives of an indelible array of individuals--musicians, housewives and pastors, children and grandparents, the men and women who own the dry cleaners and the mini-marts--Yoon Choi explores the Korean-American experience at its interstices: where first and second generations either clash or find common ground; where meaning falls in the cracks between languages; where relationships bend under the weight of tenderness and disappointment; where displacement turns to heartbreak."-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
