Fantastic book on the Southeast Asian settlements in America during the 80s. In 1986 Lowell, Massachusetts was a city of almost 100,000 persons and over fourty ethnic groups. In the 1980s nearly 10,000 Southeast Asian refugees settled in the city creating a community that has become a vital part of Lowell's cultural mosaic.
The Southeast Asian refugees left their homelands to escape political turmoil and suffering. Many did not survive the exodus. The ones who did, and made it to the country, started new lives in communities like Lowell.
In the words of one refugee, "When you decide to escape, you decide to die. When you escape without death it's like being bone again."
