Literary Nonfiction. Asian & Asian American Studies. California Interest. Roy Cheng Tsung, a young American-born Chinese, escapes from Communist China with his mother in 1974 after 20 years of isolation during the Cold War and searches for the reason his late father had made it virtually impossible for him to reclaim his American citizenship. Forty-five years later he recounts that story for his daughters who grew up in sunny California and had no clue about what it was like to live in a totalitarian country and the sacrifices that came with our freedom.
