Pioneer Girl - Bich Minh Nguyen

Descriere Pioneer Girl - Bich Minh Nguyen

\nA powerful and wholly original American saga. --San Francisco Chronicle \nBich Minh Nguyen's previous books--the acclaimed memoir Stealing Buddha's Dinner and the American Book Award-winning novel Short Girls--established her talents as a writer of keen cultural observation. In Pioneer Girl, Nguyen entwines the Asian American experience with the escapist pleasures of literature, in a dazzling mystery about the origins of Laura Ingalls Wilder's classic Little House on the Prairie. \n \nLee Lien has long dodged her Vietnamese family's rigid expectations by immersing herself in books. But now, jobless with a PhD in literature, she is back at home, working in her family's restaurant under her mother's hypercritical gaze--until an heirloom from their past sends Lee on a search for clues that may lead back to Wilder herself, transforming strangers' lives as well as her own.\n
