Eternal River
Volume I - The Early Years
Carolyn Wing Greenlee
Eternal River is the family histories of Tom & Kathleen Wing revealed in a unique and compelling format. Overcoming adversities within Confucian culture, and the era when Chinese Americans were not welcome in White neighborhoods, Tom and Kathleen forged their way with ingenuity and grit, and the support of loyal friends who opened doors for them that society had locked. This book is a celebration of their endurance, creative contributions to American life, and the individuals who joined with them along the way.
- Review Quotes -
"Eternal River - Volume 1 - The Early Years" is part of a searing quintet of volumes which track two immigrant families as its members untie traditional Chinese constraints and seek their places in America’s maddening mix of exclusion and opportunity. Wing-Greenlee, a third-generation American Chinese, is an artist, oral historian, memoirist, and poet. Employing one skill, then another, she unsparingly details the distinctive character, obstacles, and achievements of each of her talented parents, and the families from which they sprang. With equal audacity, she bares the pleasures and pangs of growing up as a Chinese in a mostly white college town.
