Descriere magazin:
A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK\'A layered, beautifully written, and deeply moving novel. Karissa Chen masterfully blends love, music, history, and heartbreak to create a sweeping
tale that spans
decades and continents\'Abi Daré\'[
Homeseeking] weaves expertly between present and past, telling the story of childhood sweethearts who meet again late in life and are torn between looking back and moving on\'Celeste Ng\'Wonderfully cinematic, gorgeously orchestrated . . . like any tried-and-true
epic (think Pachinko or The Joy Luck Club) . . .
Homeseeking is just a genuine pleasure to read\'San Francisco Chronicle\'As I tearfully turned the last page of
Homeseeking, I knew that it had earned a place on my top shelf . . . unforgettable\'Washington Post\'One of the best debut novels of this century\'Pittsburgh Post-GazetteThere are moments when a single choice can define an entire life. Haiwen and Suchi are teenage sweethearts in 1940s Shanghai; their childhood friendship has blossomed into young love, and they believe that they are soulmates. But when Haiwen secretly decides to enlist in the army to keep his brother from the draft, their shared future is shattered. Their paths take
them far afield from each other, with the exception of one pivotal chance encounter on the Hong Kong ferry in 1966. Sixty years later, Haiwen, now in his late seventies, is bagging bananas at a 99 Ranch in Los Angeles when he lifts his head to once more see Suchi. As they begin to rekindle their friendship, it feels like they might have a second chance to live the life they were supposed to have
together. But the weight of the past lives with
them at every moment, and only time will tell if they are able to forge something new. Told in alternating narratives, Homeseeking spans seven
decades, through the most tumultuous period of modern Chinese history up to contemporary times, tracing the separated lovers as they migrate from Shanghai to Hong Kong, Taiwan, and America. \'A love story in more ways than one, Homeseeking is a beautiful, nuanced look at Chinese history, family, young love, and the wisdom of age\'Vanessa Cha
