Our Missing Hearts - Celeste Ng - książka
Producent: Abacus
Twelve-year-old Bird Gardner leads a tranquil life with his devoted father, who once was a linguist but now works as a librarian at a university. Bird's mother, Margaret—a Chinese American poet—disappeared without explanation when Bird was just nine, leaving him with unanswered questions and resentment, especially since her books were banned. Her apparent preference for her work over him has always been a sore point. Bird's life takes a turn when he receives a peculiar letter featuring a cryptic drawing, sparking a quest to find his mother. This adventure draws him back to the folktales she filled his mind with during his early years, introduces him to a clandestine network of brave librarians, and eventually leads him to New York City. There, Bird uncovers the truth about his mother's disappearance and gains insight into what lies ahead for both of them. "Our Missing Hearts" revisits an age-old tale, revealing how seemingly advanced societies can overlook grave injustices. It's a narrative about the heritage and wisdom we impart to future generations and the transformative power of art.
