Aimee Liu recommends
The House of Plain Truth (2024)
Donna Hemans
"In prose that pulses with the tempo, climate, and luxuriant beauty of Jamaica, Donna Hemans chronicles the tragic consequences of intergenerational migration and estrangement, colonial brutality, and the chaos of revolution on one Jamaican family. The House of Plain Truth is a heart-wrenching novel of loss and grief with profound resonance in today\s migratory world."
All Sorrows Can Be Borne (2021)
Loren Stephens
"All Sorrows Can Be Borne is a harrowing story of love and betrayal, all the more heartbreaking because it is based on family history. Post-war Japan comes alive in these pages, and even the most unforgivable acts make a tragic kind of sense when viewed through the prism of violence that marked every one of the war's survivors. As this tale makes clear, in the wake of such trauma, humans can do the unthinkable, both to and for the ones they love."
The Lost Daughter of Happiness (2001)
Geling Yan
". . . a courageous and immensely talented writer . . . she has dared to face down the twin monsters of racism and sexual slavery . . ."
