An evocative family drama and a riveting mystery about the ferocious pull of motherhood for two very different womenfrom theNew York Timesbestselling author ofSearching for Sylvie LeeandGirl in Translation.
'Intriguing... Kwok is a skilled writer of suspenseful family drama... We root for Jasmine and Rebecca as they face impossible choices and emerge stronger for all the battles theyve fought, always resisting becoming the leftover women.Leigh Haber, New York Times Book Review
Jasmine Yang arrives in New York City from her rural Chinese village without money or family support, fleeing a controlling husband, on a desperate search for the daughter who was taken from her at birthanother female casualty of Chinas controversial One Child Policy. But with her husband on her trail, the clock is ticking, and shes forced to make increasingly risky decisions if she ever hopes to be reunited with her daughter.
Meanwhile, publishing executive Rebecca Whitney seems to have it all: a prestigious family name and the wealth that comes with it, a high-powered career, a beautiful home, a handsome husband, and an adopted Chinese daughter she adores.
Shes even hired a nanny to help her balance the demands of being a working wife and mother. But when an industry scandal threatens to jeopardize not only Rebeccas job but her marriage, this perfect world begins to crumble and her role in her own family is called into question.
The Leftover Womanfinds these two unforgettable women on a shocking collision course. Twisting and suspenseful and surprisingly poignant, it's a profound exploration of identity and belonging, motherhood and family.
It is a story of two women in a divided cityseparated by severe economic and cultural differences yet bound by a deep emotional connection to a child.
A magnetic meditation on secret histories, motherhood, love, and how we show up for each other in the most surprising of ways. A beautiful, propulsive story!Laura Dave, #1New York Timesbestselling author ofThe Last Thing He Told Me
'A heart-tugging exploration of love, belonging, and the meaning of family.' - Ruth Ware, #1New York Timesbestselling author ofThe It Girl
