In a mixed-media narrative saturated with a sense of poignancy and grief, Wong Cho Sum navigates the sudden death of her husband by a hit and run driver. She starts to collect cans--not just for the income, but also to give her something to do--and finds a new community filled with both kindness and racist actions. As an "invisible" elderly observer, she compares the old Chinatown she remembers with this new, slowly gentrifying one, and not all the changes are for the better. As she goes through the days, weeks, months, and years, she attempts to age in place despite her everlasting grief for both her dead husband and the community that has passed her by. Wong and Innes have created something truly special in this multi-faceted book. Innes' detailed and beautiful hand-drawn illustrations depicting the changes in the community are eye-catching complements to Wong's writing and can stand on their own.
