Lee embarks on a journey to discover her family's forgotten history and to connect with the island they once called home Taiwan is an island of extremes: towering mountains, lush forests, and barren escarpment. Between shifting tectonic plates and a history rife with tension, the geographical and political landscape is forever evolving. After unearthing a hidden memoir of her grandfather's life, Jessica J. Lee seeks to piece together the fragments of her family's history as they moved from China to Taiwan, and then on to Canada. But as she navigates the tumultuous terrain of Taiwan, Lee finds herself having to traverse fissures in language, memory, and history, as she searches for the pieces of her family left behind. Interlacing a personal narrative with Taiwan's history and terrain, Two Trees Make a Forest is an intimate examination of the human relationship with geography and nature, and offers an exploration of one woman's search for history and belonging amidst an ever-shifting landscape."-- $c Provided by publisher 600 10 $a Lee, Jessica J., $d 1986- 600 10 $a Lee, Jessica J., $d 1986- $x Family. 600 10 $a Lee, Jessica J., $d 1986- $x Travel $z Taiwan. 600 17 $a Lee, Jessica J., $d 1986- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02045938 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Taiwanese $z Canada $v Biography. 650 0 $a Adult children of immigrants $z Canada $v Biography. 650 6 $a Taiwanais $z Canada $v Biographies. 650 6 $a Enfants adultes d'immigrants $z Canada $v Biographies. 650 7 $a Adult children of immigrants. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01762405 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 $a Taiwanese. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01142143 650 7 $a Travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01155558 651 0 $a Taiwan $x History $y 20th century. 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 651 7 $a Taiwan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207854 655 7 $a collective biographies. $2 aat 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 rvmgf 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 rvmgf 941 $a 3 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025210.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305020250.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240127012237.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E18515AEBCE111EEA22CC97A4BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
