Interesting story of the lives of 2 Chinese sisters growing up in Hong Kong in the late 1930's through the 1960's. Exiled to Macao during WWII, they returned and grew up in Hong Kong. Older sister dreamed of becoming an actress, while her mother plotted to make her a "suitable marriage." Generational differences within the family are well-drawn. Younger sister, with the support of her Auntie Go, left Hong Kong to attend school in San Francisco during the 50's and 60's.
