Her experience is at once unique and emblematic to the trials and tribulations facing immigrants of all faiths and ethnicities, and Fong captures the sometimes, troubling issues of transition and acculturation. Her story is a powerful one, earnest and true, rich with the passion of life, of the tender, unrequited love for a dear classmate, ultimately learning to overcome loss and embrace both the past and the future as one.\" - James Brown, author of the memoirs, \u003cem\u003eThe Los Angeles Diaries \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003eThis River\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Mary Fong has written a wonderful and engaging memoir detailing her experiences of childhood, including witnessing her immigrant parents' struggle to survive in the restaurant business.
