Set in contemporary San Francisco and in a Chinese village where Peking Man is being unearthed. This is the story of a mother and daughter and the human spirit. Through her mother's journal Ruth learns of her family's history, her mother's struggles and hopes in growing up in a very rough time.

I thought this book was very good and touching.
