roseleaf24 's review for:
Songs of Willow Frost
by Jamie Ford
Two stories ate told, one of a Chinese boy in an orphanage in 1934, in Seattle during the depression; the other of his mother in the 1920s. They combine to tell the story of this mother-child relationship and how it came to be what it is. Life was rough for orphans and abandoned children during the Depression, and life was rough for first generation Asian Americans in the 20s, so the book was fairly depressing to me. There was a lot of hope, but a lot of it unfulfilled, and I'm not sure the ending was enough for me.
