A-Zou

Victoria Phaff is facing many problems. Even though it's the new millennium, her concerns are of the age old variety. She is a twenty-three year old Amerasian, newly graduated from college, and heart broken. To distract herself and get some distance from a string of failed relationships, she goes to Taiwan to see her great-grandmother, A-zou. While there she unexpectedly finds herself caught in between three generations of Taiwanese women as secrets long suppressed are revealed. As the stories of her great-grandmother, her grandmother, and her mother are unwound, the tenacity and hopes of these women are passed onto the next generation. Vicki draws strength from these tales to grasp happiness for herself.
