Summary |
"A family saga based in Silicon Valley that follows the Huang family as they come to terms with their patriarch's terminal cancer diagnosis and anticipate the distribution of his highly valuable estate"-- Provided by publisher. |
|
Meet Stanley Huang: father, husband, ex-husband, man of unpredictable tastes and temper, newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. For his son Fred, the inheritance Stanley has long alluded to would soothe the pain caused by years of professional disappointment. Stanley's daughter, Kate, a middle manager with one of Silicon Valley's most prestigious tech companies, manages the demands of her boss and the needs of her two young children all while supporting her would-be entrepreneur husband. Stanley's second wife, Mary Zhu, has devoted herself to making her husband comfortable in every way, but lately her commitment has waned. Linda Liang, his first wife, worked hard to ensure their financial security, and is determined to see her children get their due. Unexpected challenges lead them all to discover what they most value. -- adapted from back cover |
