A story made up of bittersweet, fluorescent Polaroid photos. Ko does a great job constructing beautiful moments with her literary wizardry. Polly Guo, a romantic and resolved mother whose desire to pursue the sometimes fearsome freedom has been tied down by her connection with her son, is one of the most refreshing mother characters in modern lit.
評分NYPL. Compelling, subtle start but a banal ending.
評分花瞭兩天時間一口氣看完瞭這本小說,作者的構思和文筆都不落俗套,看的時候有種邊理解故事邊學習英語的感覺。非法移民到跨種族收養兩個話題恰好都與我最近的經曆和思考有共鳴之處,然而最令人驚喜的是Peilan Guo這個母親角色,一位不懼挑戰,不安於現狀,一生都在往外麵的世界拼命摺騰的女人。讀她的內心獨白,對於在生活的柴米油鹽中消磨的不安遠勝於去探索未知世界的不安,像是小婦人裏麵的Jo March. Maybe it’s not about moving to new places, the challenge is to stay put. In the wake of COVID-19, this statement is coated with a new feeling for me.
評分Those left outside of the "model minority." 很紀實細膩的小說 關於亞裔移民追尋自由和identity之路

One morning, Deming Guo’s mother, an undocumented Chinese immigrant named Polly, goes to her job at the nail salon and never comes home. No one can find any trace of her.
With his mother gone, eleven-year-old Deming is left with no one to care for him. He is eventually adopted by two white college professors who move him from the Bronx to a small town upstate. They rename him Daniel Wilkinson in their efforts to make him over into their version of an “all-American boy.” But far away from all he’s ever known, Daniel struggles to reconcile his new life with his mother’s disappearance and the memories of the family and community he left behind.
Set in New York and China, The Leavers is a vivid and moving examination of borders and belonging. It’s the story of how one boy comes into his own when everything he’s loved has been taken away--and how a mother learns to live with the mistakes of her past.
This powerful debut is the winner of the 2016 PEN/Bellwether Prize for fiction, awarded by Barbara Kingsolver for a novel that addresses issues of social justice.
