Torn between two lives, she seeks guidance in her mother’s journals and letters going back thirty years, and there, she meets versions of her mother she never knew: a girl who left behind an entire self after immigration, an artist in the role of housewife, and a woman who wanted more time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis new perspective allows Wen to see her mother not only as her mother but also as a woman with many lives and dreams unfulfilled. As Wen grapples with the legacy of these unrealized dreams and how that legacy has shaped her own life, her grieving transforms into a sweeping and compassionate study of a woman’s relationship between art, intimacy, and caregiving.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing from some of the most intimate pieces of Wen’s and her mother’s journals, \u003ci\u003eAll of Us Wildflowers \u003c\/i\u003emoves back and forth in time, weaving together a rich tapestry of love, longing, and loss that asks: Where does a mother’s story end and a daughter’s begin? With tender and lyrical prose, and unflinching honesty, Wen’s memoir is a deeply felt meditation on sacrifice, faith, and personal fulfillment.","brand":"Counterpoint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48897747190015,"sku":"9781640098268","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781640098268","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
