Miranda, our Library Events Coordinator recommends "The Many Daughters of Afong Moy" by Jamie Ford for APIDA Month.
“This fascinating book of historical and future fiction takes you through eight matrilineal generations following the arrival of Afong Moy, known as the first woman to immigrate from China to the U.S. Through the interwoven stories of Afong Moy and her descendants, we learn how inherited trauma of ancestors can impact the lives of their descendants at the cellular level. The action all leads up to one woman’s attempt to change the outcomes for her daughter.”
