My name is Lydia. They are unaware of this, however.
This is how this wonderful book about a Chinese American family in small-town Ohio in the 1970s opens. Marilyn and James Lee adore Lydia beyond all other children, and they are determined that she will achieve the goals that they were unable to. The careful balancing act that has been keeping the Lee family together is undone, plunging them into disarray, when Lydia's death is discovered in the nearby lake.
Everything I Never Told You is a delicate family picture as well as a riveting page-turner that reveals the ways in which mothers and daughters, dads and sons, and husbands and spouses fight throughout their lives to understand one another. It is a very compelling narrative of family, secrets, and desire.
