About this product

Product Information

I don't know how old I was when I watched my mother's murder, nor do I know how old I am today.' So opens this beautiful, sad and uplifting memoir. The illegitimate daughter of a Korean peasant and an American GI, Elizabeth spent her early years as a social outcast, because of the Korean taboo against the mixing of races. Ostracized by her mother's family and village, she and her mother were regularly pelted with stones on their way home from the rice fields. Yet because of her mother's love and calm acceptance of her fate, inspired by her deep Buddhist faith, there was a tranquil happiness in the intense and close bond between mother and daughter- until the day Elizabeth's grandfather and uncle came to punish her mother for the dishonour she had brought the family, and hanged her in front of her daughter's eyes. Elizabeth was dumped in an orphanage in Seoul where the orphans were neglected, deprived of all affection, and abused. After some time, she was adopted by an American couple. Brought to America, she found herself surrounded by fanaticism and prejudice- her strict Christian Fundamentalist parents forbade her to remember her own mother and the traumas of her past, and

EXCELLENT!!! - very fast dispatch & delivery - good packing ensured safe receipt (thanks seller for your trouble) - book/case described as 'v. good' - it's better than described and in my opinion is 'like new' (probably unread) - well chuffed with purchase and a highly recommended seller 10/10****

Great service. Fast delivery and well packaged. Books were described as in 'Good' condition and to be fair 2 of them were actually better than this. One has quite a lot of spotting on the edges that you don't get to see in the photos but even this book would still qualify as 'Good'. No complaints here.

Excellent item, as described, in good condition and great quality. Very efficient in posting after payment received. Excellent postage cost. Great service from seller but same can't be said for the Royal Mail which as a seller you can't control and I am aware of that. However, Royal Mail did locate my stack of book's after a phone call to Customer Services. I am really looking forward to doing business with you in the not so distant future. Thank you again.
