Riveting, colorful, and often darkly humorous, House of Kwa is an epic story spanning four generations of Kwa’s Chinese family. From the imperial compound in Beijing, down the silk and opium road to Southern China, and across to Hong Kong, it is an unforgettable tale of one woman’s courage to stand up to a lifetime of bullying and prejudice. Throughout her journey, Kwa finds inspiration in her father’s late older sister, the jet-setting, free-spirited Aunt Theresa, whose extraordinary life serves as a beacon of hope.
