The Manicurist's Daughter

In The Manicurist’s Daughter, an emotionally raw memoir, Susan Lieu faces her family’s harrowing story: Vietnamese refugees who open two nail salons, well on their way to the American Dream, only to lose their inimitable matriarch after a routine plastic surgery operation goes horribly awry.

In ,,Fiica manichiuristei", o carte de memorii plina de emotie, Susan Lieu se confrunta cu povestea sfasietoare a familiei sale: refugiatii vietnamezi care deschid doua saloane de manichiura, aflate pe drumul cel bun spre Visul American, doar pentru a-si pierde inimitabila matriarha dupa ce o operatie de chirurgie plastica de rutina esueaza ingrozitor.
