ReviewsA sharply written and absorbing dive into a dark and glamorous world. As timely as it is entertaining, this spectacular novel hooked me from the first page. Winnie M Li is a remarkable talent.
SynopsisOn an unexpected road trip, three estranged siblings uncover a startling family secret and larger truths about being Asian American in a post-COVID world--from the author of the "dazzling and devastating" (Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author) thriller Complicit . The Chu siblings haven't seen each other in years but when they're told that their ailing mother is scheduled for an operation next month, they agree to visit her together. Then their mother makes an odd request: before seeing her, they must go on a road trip together to the Grand Canyon. Thirty years ago, a strange incident had aborted a previous family road trip there. No one's ever really spoken about it, but during this journey, the middle-aged Chu siblings have no choice but to confront their childhood experience. Together, Bonnie, Kevin, and Alex travel along Route 66--but as the trip continues, they realize the Great American Road Trip may not be what they expected. Facing their own prejudices and those of others, they somehow learn to bridge the distances between them, the present-day, and their past. With "powerful and beautiful writing" (Sarah Pearse, New York Times bestselling author), Winnie M Li weaves an emotive and eye-opening exploration of family, race, growing up, and what it means to be American.
