From the Bookshelves: The Face: Strangers on a Pier by Tash Aw
The Face: Strangers on a Pier by Tash Aw
Born in Taipei to Malaysian parents, Tash Aw grew up in Kuala Lumpur before moving to Britain. In his first memoir, the twice-Booker Prize-nominated novelist explores the culture of silence about the past, which made his parents reticent about discussing the family’s history as Chinese immigrants.
