Krátky popis
'Lyrical, haunting and profoundly moving, Nothing to My Name is a
story of survival, identity and the fragile hope that passes from
mother to daughter' Jean Kwok 'Nothing to My Name lives honestly in
its history - foolhardy and loving and yet uncharted. A formidable
and astonishing new voice' T. Kira Madden'A gripping story of
family bonds, redemption and triumph. A masterful debut!' Marcela
Fuentes1948, Zhoushan, China. Twelve-year-old Ah Xue watches her
mother earn a living combing the hair of the wealthy women in their
small fishing village, as reports of civil war and the rising
Communist revolution grow closer to home.Years later, Mimosa grows
up in the shadow of her parents' struggles, while the looming
tension of the Cultural Revolution threatens to pull her family
apart.And Fei, raised as a boy by the activist father she can't
help but idolise, grapples with her identity in the aftermath of
the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.Spanning four decades and three
generations, Nothing to My Name braids an unforgettable story of
the ordinary women caught in the tides of societal upheaval, but
bound by an insuppressible instinct to survive. From an astonishing
new writer, it explores with remarkable tenderness the enduring
repercussions of trauma, the search for stability in disorder, and
the often contradictory nature of familial love.
