| Summary, etc. | In this profoundly moving novel, Fae Myenne Ng takes readers into the hidden heart of San Francisco's Chinatown, to a world of family secrets, hidden shames, and the lost bones of a "paper father." It is a world in which two generations of the Leong family live in an uneasy tension as they try to fathom the source of the middle daughter Ona's sorrow. Fae Myenne Ng's portraits of the everyday heroism of the Leongs-who inflict deep hurt on each other in their struggles to survive, yet sustain one another with loyalty and love- have made bone one of the most critically acclaimed novels of recent years and immediately a classic of contemporary American life.<br/><br/>"Bone is written in a perfectly clear, undecorated prose that stops the eye at every sentence. Simply by telling the unadorned facts of the story, Ms. Ng makes it clear that moving across town to a new neighborhood can be, in its own way, as hard as crossing the Pacific Ocean". _ New York times book review<br/><br/>"The wiry, unpretentious prose of bone exhibits sustained emotional power... it clearly announces the emergence of an impressive talent on the landscape of the American novel_ Boston Globe <br/><br/>" An extraordinary first novel.... a hopeful charming, and surprisingly joyous work."_ Chicago Tribune |
