Sobre este título
1950. It’s the coldest winter in decades, and twenty-eight-year-old Chinese American journalist Ellie Chang has hitched a ride on a military flight to cover a battle in the mountains of North Korea when her plane is shot down in enemy territory, stranding her there.
Hwa-Ja, who introduces herself as “Emma,” has been searching for her own daughter since the last war ended. When she rescues Ellie from local soldiers, she sees a girl whose mother must be worrying somewhere, and so convinces the family she is sheltering with—the Paks—to take Ellie in.
The matriarch of the Pak home, who Ellie only knows as “Imo,” has no patience for this American whose presence could mean the death of them all. She knows too well the danger of being seen with the enemy.
As bombing intensifies, Ellie urges the women to flee southward with her. Together they chase the constantly moving frontline: Emma always searching, Imo haunted by the past, and Ellie keeping her identity hidden at all costs . . . even as her life becomes forever entangled with theirs.
Moving and triumphant, The Young Will Remember sheds light on a “Forgotten War” and emphasizes the resilience of love within some of our darkest histories and the indefatigable determination of mothers in war.
Resumo da Crítica
"[A] sweeping tale of female resiliency and strength."—People
"The Young Will Remember is a searing indictment of modern warfare and a testimony of human strength. With the same clarity and vividness she demonstrated in her debut, Daughters of Shandong, Eve J. Chung brings us another cast of compelling female characters who must fight for their place in a world that sees them only as collateral. Through this remarkable novel, Chung urges us to consider the human cost of wars, a cautionary tale that still rings relevant today, while reminding us that our humanity is ultimately what will save us."—Karissa Chen, author of Homeseeking
