Anny Kang was six years old when she was sent by her mother to live in America, where she becomes Catherine (Kate) Strand. Raised by a Scandinavian family in the homogeneous suburbs of the Twin Cities, Katestruggles as a Korean adoptee, her voice capturing the loneliness and sadness of a young girl who attempts to forget everything she knows in order to navigate a new family, a new language and a new life. When her Korean birth family contacts her after more than two decades, an adult Kate is forced to confront her past. Caught between two cultures for the majority of her life, it is in Korea that Kate begins to understand her long-standing inner conflicts with loss and rejection and discovers how her past has formed her current sense of self. Given Away begins as a portrait of a childhood spent in two very different worlds: Korea and America. One forgotten, one remembered. It is a story that asks the questions of home, family, and identity, and is, in its own right, a story of race and belonging. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
