Acerca de esta escucha
Sundara fled Cambodia with her aunt’s family to escape the Khmer Rouge army when she was thirteen, leaving behind her parents, her brother and sister, and the boy she had loved since she was a child.
Now, four years later, she struggles to fit in at her Oregon high school and to be "a good Cambodian girl" at home. A good Cambodian girl never dates; she waits for her family to arrange her marriage to a Cambodian boy. Yet Sundara and Jonathan, an extraordinary American boy, are powerfully drawn to each other.
Haunted by grief for her lost family and for the life left behind, Sundara longs to be with him. At the same time, she wonders if her hopes for happiness and new life in America are disloyal to her past and her people?
* “A powerful first novel. … A book to change readers’ eyes and hearts.”—Pointer, Kirkus Reviews
