In this critically acclaimed memoir, Lim lays bare the turns in her
early life in wartorn Malaysia, from wealth and security to poverty
and family violence. Her struggles to fashion a meaningful life
that will include professional achievement and a self-determined
sexuality take her on a journey across cultural and geographical
borders. In time, she moves from a numbered isolation to a
self-forged identity as an Asian American, aware of her
relationship to the land she left behind, her new homeland, and the
homeland she carries within herself.
