About the book
From the author of The Bitter Sea, an unforgettable coming-of-age-memoir, The Turbulent sea recounts Li's escape to America. A young teen escapes to America from Mao's China and experiences the consequent culture shock of cruel racism, financial hardships, unexpected freedom, shocking sexual mores, and the aching rejection and loneliness that so many immigrants face. Swept up in the 1960s antiwar movement in a pacifist and law-abiding way, Li is persecuted by the American law enforcement and immigration authorities. Timely and relevant for today's enlightened anti-racist views.
