Lydia is the favourite child of Marilyn and James Lee; a girl with her mother's bright blue eyes and her father's jet-black hair. Her parents are determined that Lydia will fulfill the dreams they were unable to pursue. But Lydia is under pressures that have nothing to do with growing up in 1970s small town Ohio. Her father is an American born of Chinese immigrants, and his ethnicity, and hers, make them conspicuous. When Lydia's body is found in a lake, James is consumed by guilt and sets out on a reckless path. Marilyn, devastated and vengeful, is determined to make someone accountable. Lydia's brother, Nathan, is convinced that local bad boy Jack is involved. But it's the youngest in the family - Hannah - who may be the only one who knows what really happened. “There is much here that might impress Pulitzer and Man Booker judges.” Mark Lawson, Guardian

Tankevekkende om oppvekst på 60-tallet og foreldrerollen generelt. Spennende familiedrama.

Meh. This is the type of book I might have liked if I had read it when I was 14. With its over the top themes and one dimensional characters, the story almost reminds me of a fairy tale; the characters being little more than symbols to the moral of the story. Neither the characters of the book, nor their relationships felt real. That is not to say that I don’t believe any of the personalities or ideas in the book exists in real life people, but simply that they lacked any true depth and complexity. The writing itself is not terrible, but (like others have pointed out) it feels a little like something written in a MFA program.
