Now, because she believes she is dying, Helen wants to expose everything. And Winnie angrily determines that she must be the one to tell her daughter, Pearl, about the past--including the terrible truth even Helen does not know. And so begins Winnie's story of her life on a small island outside Shanghai in the 1920s, and other places in China during World War II, and traces the happy and desperate events that led to Winnie's coming to America in 1949. 000306537 650_0 $$aChinese American families$$vFiction. 000306537 650_0 $$aChinese Americans$$vFiction. 000306537 650_0 $$aMothers and daughters$$vFiction. 000306537 650_0 $$aChinese fiction. 000306537 651_0 $$aCalifornia$$vFiction. 000306537 651_0 $$aChina$$vFiction. 000306537 655_7 $$aDomestic fiction.$$2lcgft 000306537 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3570.A48$$iK58$$i1992 000306537 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:306537$$pGLOBAL_SET 000306537 980__ $$aBIB 000306537 980__ $$aBOOK 000306537 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
