About the book

Kim Chang flytter fra Hong Kong til New York som elleveåring. Hun føler seg fanget midt imellom to verdener: skoleflink mønsterelev om dagen og morens hjelper i tekstilfabrikken om kvelden. Hun gjør alt for å skjule fattigdommen hun lever i, og sliter med ansvaret hun føler overfor familiens framtid. Til slutt blir hun tvunget til å gjøre et valg.
