ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane” by Lisa See follows the life of Li-yan, a young girl from the Akha tribe in the remote mountains of China. Raised in a strict traditional culture, Li-yan is forced to navigate the complexities of family, identity, and societal expectations. The novel explores her struggles with the roles imposed on her, particularly her relationship with her daughter, whom she is forced to abandon. As Li-yan enters the world of tea commerce, the story delves into themes of tradition versus modernity, mother-daughter bonds, and the quest for personal and cultural identity.
