A new contribution to American 'literary ethnography,' this fictionalized account is a Korean-American complement to Alex Haley's bestseller. --Christian Science Monitor
An immigrant novel of quiet power and sensitivity; the story of Koreans fighting their way into American society in the years following WWI. --Kirkus
This is a germinal novel that will stand beside the works of John Okada and Luis Chu. Clay Walls, with its celebration of the life of Asian Americans, proves that such literature is alive and doing well. It is must reading for anyone interested in American ethnic history. — Sam Solberg, former director of Asian-American Studies, University of Washington, Seattle
It will stand as required reading for a new generation of Koreans as well as a source for the general readership interested in knowing more about this important and rapidly growing ethnic community. — Michael Robinson, University of Southern California, Department of History
