This title is printed to order. This book may have been self-published. If so, we cannot guarantee the quality of the content. In the main most books will have gone through the editing process however some may not. We therefore suggest that you be aware of this before ordering this book. If in doubt check either the author or publisher’s details as we are unable to accept any returns unless they are faulty. Please contact us if you have any questions.

This book is an experiment in storytelling across languages, cultures, and ways of seeing the world. Mom's Story is told in three parts. The first is in English. The second tells the same story in Simplified Chinese (Mandarin), not as a translation, but as an original retelling. The third shares the story again, this time in Traditional Chinese (Cantonese) - the author's own mother tongue. Each version reflects not only a change in language, but a shift in voice, rhythm, and cultural resonance. Through this structure, the book invites readers to explore how language shapes memory, emotion, and meaning.
