Narrators Katharine Chin and Yu-Li Alice Shen transport listeners with their portrayals of complex characters in this literary audiobook. American Lindsey Litvak, age 22, is fighting for her life in a Shanghai hospital after a hit-and-run accident. Her divorced parents rush to China to be by her side, but they don't speak the language and struggle to navigate their new surroundings. Chin, who serves as the third-person narrator, captures the story's strong sense of place and the tension in the complex family relationships as the story jumps between the present and past. Shen narrates the final chapter through the perspective of Lindsey's adopted younger sister, Grace. Her mature portrayal imbues Grace with depth and emotional growth. A compelling character-driven family drama. V.T.M. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2025]
