In 1994, Anchee Min made her literary debut with Red Azalea, a memoir of growing up in China during the Cultural Revolution. Twenty years later, she picks up the tale again, with the story of her emigration to the U.S., the land of bounty. But Min's path toward selfhood in her new country is anything but easy. She teaches herself English watching Sesame Street; she works five jobs at once to keep herself afloat; she endures a rape, and a bad first marriage. Her successes, when they come, are all the more stunning.
