TURNING - A Woman's Rite of Passage (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798280398566)

Beneath the surface of a seemingly perfect life, a woman stands at the quiet edge of change.

When Manling discovers her husband's hidden betrayal, her world doesn't shatter-it tilts. Caught between loyalty and longing, she revisits a forgotten part of herself through an unexpected reunion with a childhood friend. What begins as a simple reconnection becomes a mirror for everything she has buried beneath duty, motherhood, and silence.

A marriage built on silence. A love tested by time. A woman standing at the crossroads of truth and loyalty.

Turning: A Woman's Rite of Passage is a poignant literary novel that explores the quiet unraveling of a seemingly perfect life. Set between Taiwan and the United States, the story follows Manling, a devoted wife and mother, as she begins to question everything she has built with her husband-a respected doctor harboring secrets.

When an old classmate reappears, and whispers of betrayal reach her ears, Manling is forced to face the quiet compromises she has long accepted.

Through lyrical prose and intimate reflection, author Tong Lien unveils a raw and tender portrait of a woman reclaiming her voice amid the expectations of culture, duty, and love.
