The fortunes of jaded women : a novel / Carolyn Huynh. by Huynh, Carolyn, author. New York : Atria Books, 2022. Subjects Sisters -- Fiction.   Vietnamese Americans -- Fiction.   Asian American women -- Fiction.   Blessing and cursing -- Fiction.   Families -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781982188733 (hardcover) : 1982188731 (hardcover) : Description:  255 pages : genealogical table ; 24 cm Edition:  First Atria Books hardcover edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "It started with their ancestor, Oanh, who dared to leave her marriage for true love-so a fearsome Vietnamese witch cursed Oanh and her descendants so that they would never find love or happiness, and the Duong women would give birth to daughters, never sons. Oanh's current descendant Mai Nguyen knows this curse well. She's divorced, and after an explosive disagreement a decade ago, she's estranged from her younger sisters, Minh Pham (the middle and the mediator) and Khuyen Lam (the youngest who swears she just runs humble coffee shops and nail salons, not Little Saigon's underground). Though Mai's three adult daughters, Priscilla, Thuy, and Thao, are successful in their careers (one of them is John Cho's dermatologist!), the same can't be said for their love lives. Mai is convinced they might drive her to an early grave. Desperate for guidance, she consults Auntie Hua, her trusted psychic in Hawaii, who delivers an unexpected prediction: this year, her family will witness a marriage, a funeral, and the birth of a son. This prophecy will reunite estranged mothers, daughters, aunts, and cousins-for better or for worse. A multi-narrative novel brimming with levity and candor, The Fortunes of Jaded Women is about mourning, meddling, celebrating, and healing together as a family. It shows how Vietnamese women emerge victorious, even if the world is against them."-- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult New Books Huynh Lost 05/02/2023 Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Huynh Transit   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Huynh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 3 Next
