Overview / 简介: |
Jin-Han's Korean-American family moves from city to city, trying to establish their wig business. He narrates his youth, from age 2 through high school, as he deals with the usual humiliations of childhood, the exciting prospects of adolescence, and coming to terms with the death of his mother. "At times startling with its simple elegance."—Publishers Weekly |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
In this memoir-ish novel of growing up in the 70s and 80s, Jin-Han's parents are Korean immigrants to the USA who make a living by running a wig shop with a predominantly Black clientele. While this entry into American capitalism was not atypical for immigrant Korean families, it is an atypical lifestyle for a child becoming an American teenager. Jin-Han's story is told at the point where these several worlds meet, and it is an engaging and moving story. Perfect for young adults and general readers. I found it to be a superior book. I really loved it.
