In this poignant memoir, Qian Julie Wang recounts her childhood experience as an undocumented immigrant in 1990s New York City. Transitioning from a life of academic privilege in China to the precarious reality of poverty and invisibility in America, she navigates the complexities of cultural assimilation, family trauma, and the pursuit of education. Her narrative offers a candid, firsthand perspective on the struggle for survival and belonging within the shadows of the American dream.
