I loved the exploration of race in this book, as I learnt more about Chinese culture, as well as the interesting sub-plots about immigration, illicit affairs and school life. Though, it can be hard to follow at times due to the constant flipping before and after Lydia’s death.ksheaffs's review against another edition
