Christine's review of White Ghost Girls
White Ghost Girls by Alice Greenway
Short, grabbing read. I went through this in one sitting. Not a typical coming of age story - American family in Hong Kong during Vietnam War - but same relationship dilemmas between sisters and parents in an intense setting. Vivid descriptions of place and emotion. Some themes: guilt, sibling rivalry, sexuality, war, family relationships. I wanted to hear more voice than the narrator's (younger sister) dominant voice.
