Description
Li weaves stories of her family with the recipes of her ancestry. The book centers on her relationship with Nai-nai, her grandmother. She celebrates a host of festivals, from the Chinese New Year with good-luck money gifts to the little-known April 4 Festival of Grave Sweeping. In stories and in the nearly 20 recipes, Li reveals the tale of an Asian woman caught between many different worlds and times and places.
