Summary
"From National Book Award-longlisted poet Victoria Chang, a collection of literary letters and mementos on the art of remembering across generations"--, Provided by publisherChang's remembrances are contained in a collection of letters. They are founded in the fragments of stories her mother shared reluctantly, and the silences of her father, who first would not and then could not share more. The letters are sculpted from an archive of family relics: a marriage license, a letter, a visa petition, a photograph. And, just as often, they are built on the questions that can no longer be answered. -- adapted from jacket
