An tale of Chinese immigration to America with all its hardships and traumas laid bare. Slow moving story line with lots of contemplating on life choices and turns that were no choices at all.

I appreciated learning a bit of US History that is not often discussed.  I struggled with the reality of Diayu being able to pass as Jacob for so long -

made me struggle to stay in the story for the final third even understanding the literary reasons for doing this
