Description
The story of two American sisters coming of age in the summer of '67 in Hong Kong with war raging in neighbouring Vietnam. Marianne, their beautiful, but distant mother, paints watercolours of the Hong Kong landscape, leaving her daughters largely unsupervised or in the care of a Chinese refugee. The two sisters tumble into their teenage years against the extraordinary backdrop of a Hong Kong dealing with the threat of communist China bubbling at its borders and the carnage in Vietnam that calls their father back time and again, like a moth to a flame. This astonishing literary debut is a tale of sacrifice and solidarity that gleams with the kind of intense, complicated love that only exists between sisters.
