We are huge fans of Lisa See and are thrilled to welcome her back to Houston!  She'll be in town to celebrate the paperback release of Shanghai Girls.

Shanghai Girls is the story of Pearl and May Chin who must flee pre-WWII Shanghai, ultimately across the Pacific to California where they face an unknown future as immigrants and wives in a hostile society.  Throughout their lives they are inseparable but face impossible choices and harbor a devastating secret.  It's a fascinating look at a little known slice of American history and a great story of two sisters' love for one another and their Shanghai.  The Dallas Morning News said, "If you’re looking for one of those wonderful 'take me someplace exotic' books for summer, you won’t do better than Shanghai Girls."
