In New York City, an art student finds an unexpected subject when she moves in with a grandmother from Xi'an, and boundaries are put into question. When a newlywed couple moves to Arizona, adapting to unfamiliar customs keeps their marriage from falling apart. A woman grapples with what it means to care for another, and the limits of that care, when her dying husband returns from Beijing years after abandoning her. And during a rainy summer in Texas, a visitor exposes the unspoken but unburiable history that binds two families together. Ada Zhang writes with startling honesty and love about lives young and old, in a stunning debut that explores what happens when we leave home and what happens when we stay, and the selves we meet and shed in the process of becoming." ---Publisher description. 650 0 $a Asian Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Immigrants $z United States $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Short stories. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 6 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117015536.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230907011557.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230906010158.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230607010049.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230606011322.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20230602010642.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CAD4C41E010A11EE9BD628C82BECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b IX2Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
