In 1935, at the age of two, Nona Mock was abandoned at the Ming Quong orphanage in Los Gatos, California. From that first, searing memory of seeing her mother walk out of her life forever, Mock turned grief into strength. Bamboo Women tells 21 inspiring stories of comingofage from the women of Ming Quong, a home for orphaned Chinese girls in the San Francisco Bay Area. Wyman introduces us to her "sisters" and how their bonds of love and friendship carried them through life, love, loss, career, and family. Praise for Bamboo Women: Nona Mock Wyman tells an essential San Francisco Bay Area Chinatown story that has resided too long in the dark recesses of painful memories. William Wong, author of Yellow Journalist: Dispatches from Asian America "Beautifully and wrenchingly told, Bamboo Women is a courageous look into a littleknown world, and an affirmation of the human spirit." Karin Evans, author of The Lost Daughters of China Compelling. Ben Fong Torres, author of The Rice Room: Growing Up ChineseAmerican from Number Two Son to Rock 'n' Roll
