Author: Wayson Choy

This book has been on the shelf for a long time. I always avoided reading it; I’m not sure why. It won a couple of awards and was a pick for Canada Reads, although it didn’t win.

This seemed less like a novel than connected short stories revolving around three Chinese-Canadian children and their relationship with other family members and their Vancouver neighbourhood. I found the story of Third Son the most interesting.
