Brought together by their Arts and Crafts teacher, the children learned to cherish their friendship and to understand their cultural roots. At their farewell party, they promised to come back for a reunion twenty years later, on the evening of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Now working in Canada, Glasses is coming home to keep his promise. Penghu's landscapes - waves, fields, cows, coral-stone walls, horsetail trees and gaillardias - summon back memories at school, in the pottery workshop, and on a trip to the Isle of Jibei. As he makes his way towards the old workshop, Glasses relives those memories and contemplates the meaning of home.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Taiwanese writer Li Tong's award-winning novel, \u003cem\u003eAgain I See the Gaillardias\u003c\/em\u003e, is a deeply moving story about friendship, growing up, homecoming, self-identification and local attachments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tong Li\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0993215475\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780993215476\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Balestier Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.40d","brand":"Tong Li","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44063690817791,"sku":"9780993215476","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6f9537b8-1aef-4284-9b00-3d11a3966b84.jpg?v=1685391069","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/again-i-see-the-gaillardias-tong-li-9780993215476","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
