Synopsis Olivia is 3 years old when she discovers she has a half-sister, Kwan, who lives in China. When Kwan arrives to join the family, she reveals her secret to Olivia--she has visions and communicates with ghosts. Many years later, Kwan tries to encourage Olivia not to give up on her marriage to Simon and convinces them both to travel to China with her. In this evocative setting, Kwan has her most disturbing and revealing visions about her own and her sister's past lives. Size Length: 358 pages Height: 9.5 in. Width: 6.3 in. Thickness: 1.2 in. Weight: 24.0 oz. Publisher's Note Kwan, a seventeen-year-old Chinese half-sister, turns young Olivia's world upside down with her stories of ghosts of another time, tales that have a profound impact on Olivia's life and imagination, until she discovers a way to reconcile the ghosts of the past with her dreams of the future. Industry reviews "...fans should warm to the loving depiction of Kwan's old-world eccentricities and to the homespun precision with which the sisters' complex bond is illuminated." Goodrich As in The Joy Luck Club, Tan unwinds another haunting tale that examines the ties binding Chinese Americans to their ancestors. . . . [She] tells a mysterious, believable story and delivers Kwan's clipped, immigrant voice and engaging personality with charming clarity. Annotation copyright H.W. Wilson Company.
