Lydia is dead. But they
don’t know this yet .
. . So begins the story of this exquisite debut novel, about a
Chinese American family living in 1970s small-town Ohio. Lydia is the
favorite child of Marilyn and James Lee; their middle daughter, a girl who
inherited her mother’s bright blue eyes and her father’s
jet-black hair. A profoundly moving story of family, history, and the
meaning of home, Everything I Never Told You is both a
gripping page-turner and a sensitive family portrait, exploring the divisions
between cultures and the rifts within a family, and uncovering
the ways in which mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and
husbands and wives struggle, all their lives, to understand one another.
