From Yunhong, one of the star-crossed lovers at the story's start, to her great granddaughter, Emily, listeners are immersed in this rich exploration of family, identity, and resilience. Chin does a masterful job of balancing the family's tragedies and hopes. Listeners will be compelled to move through each generation's struggle to make sense of the family's persistent secrets.
