520    "Combining an immersive exploration of nature with 
       captivatingly beautiful prose, Jessica J. Lee embarks on a
       journey to discover her family's forgotten history and to 
       connect with the island they once called home Taiwan is an
       island of extremes: towering mountains, lush forests, and 
       barren escarpment. Between shifting tectonic plates and a 
       history rife with tension, the geographical and political 
       landscape is forever evolving. After unearthing a hidden 
       memoir of her grandfather's life, Jessica J. Lee seeks to 
       piece together the fragments of her family's history as 
       they moved from China to Taiwan, and then on to Canada. 
       But as she navigates the tumultuous terrain of Taiwan, Lee
       finds herself having to traverse fissures in language, 
       memory, and history, as she searches for the pieces of her
       family left behind. Interlacing a personal narrative with 
       Taiwan's history and terrain, Two Trees Make a Forest is 
       an intimate examination of the human relationship with 
       geography and nature, and offers an exploration of one 
       woman's search for history and belonging amidst an ever-
       shifting landscape."--|cProvided by publisher.
