This was such a wonderful memoir of mom-grief. There were times I struggled with my therapist-hat coming on too strong, but that's very much a "me" problem and not a book problem. The mom grief me, though, was hit over the head by a two-by-four with this book and the depth of feeling wrapped up in it, all told through a lens of the author managing her own biracial identity and what it meant before and after her primary tie to her Korean world died.
