Summary:
An unforgettable portrait of resistance, from Laos to California. Hamilton shares the story of Ia Moua. Born into the Hmong minority, she is promised in marriage at thirteen--to a man three times her age. After a brutal communist rule upends her life, and suffering with wounds inflicted by war and family alike, she builds a new existence for her and her children by growing Hmong rice, just as her ancestors did, and selling it to those who hunger for the Laos of their memories. Hamilton shares a story of one woman's quest for survival--and for the nourishment that matters most. -- adapted from jacket
