General Note "Three generations. One great lie"--Cover.
Summary, Etc. "For centuries, the Chin family has kept its secrets. In 1878, Duanfang knows he's destined for greatness. He'll do anything to uphold and protect the legacy of his Manchu family--even if it means hiding his past. In 1965, Zheng Yi flies from Taiwan to New York City to have a shot at attending an American college. Thrown into a world of parties, prejudice, and a tumultuous romance, Yi worries that New York may be more than she can handle. But just as she is beginning to adjust, she must make a shocking decision that will irrevocably change her life and her future forever. Today, Dawn Chin's family is opaque at best, with heavy expectations and heavier silences. But an assignment to interview her grandmother is about to crack open her real family history: a legacy hundreds of years old, and a lie decades in the making..."--Amazon.com.
