Newly orphaned children of immigrants, Lucy and Sam are suddenly alone in a land that refutes their existence. Fleeing the threats of their western mining town, they set off to bury their father in the only way that will set them free from their past. Along the way, they encounter giant buffalo bones, tiger paw prints, and the specters of a ravaged landscape as well as family secrets, sibling rivalry, and glimpses of a different kind of future. <p/> Both epic and intimate, blending Chinese symbolism and reimagined history with fiercely original language and storytelling, <i>How Much of These Hills Is Gold</i> is a haunting adventure story, an unforgettable sibling story, and the announcement of a stunning new voice in literature. On a broad level, it explores race in an expanding country and the question of where immigrants are allowed to belong. But page by page, it's about the memories that bind and divide families, and the yearning for home.<b><b><b><br></b></b></b><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Born in Beijing but mostly an artifact of the United States, <b>C Pam Zhang</b> has lived in thirteen cities across four countries and is still looking for home.
