520 "As a teen, Anna Qu is sent by her mother to work in her
family's garment factory in Queens. At home, she is
treated as a maid and suffers punishment for doing her
homework at night. Her mother wants to teach her a lesson:
she is Chinese, not American, and such is their tough path
in their new country. But instead of acquiescing, Qu
alerts the Office of Children and Family Services, an act
with consequences that impact the rest of her life. Nearly
twenty years later, estranged from her mother and working
at a Manhattan start-up, Qu requests her OCFS report. When
it arrives, key details are wrong. Faced with this false
narrative, and on the brink of losing her job as the once-
shiny start-up collapses, Qu looks once more at her life's
truths, from abandonment to an abusive family to seeking
dignity and meaning in work. Traveling from Wenzhou to
Xi'an to New York, Made in China is a fierce memoir
unafraid to ask thorny questions about trauma and survival
in immigrant families, the meaning of work, and the costs
of immigration."--Amazon.
