This is a multi generational story of three woman starting with th eldest who was brought up in Viet Nam during the 1960’s. It is heartbreaking, as well as beautiful. Each chapter is told by one of the women and secrets are revealed and old loves and hurts are revisited. It is also about forgiveness.
I normally do not care for books with these types of chapters, but Thao Thai does writes these flawlessly. I would love to see a movie made.
