The Book of Ging: A Memoir of Family, War, and Resilience - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Growing up in 1930s Manila, Ging experienced an idyllic, yet common, childhood. But that world was ripped apart by the onset of World War II.

From the quiet routine of school days to the terror of the Japanese occupation, this memoir provides a vivid perspective of wartime life, seen through the eyes of a child. Ging’s story continues into the postwar years, bringing new challenges: reuniting with family and finding her own place in a changing world.

Tender, unflinching, and often surprising with its moments of humor, The Book of Ging is more than a historical account. It is a deeply personal story of resilience and coming of age during a turbulent time in history. It reminds us that even in the most extreme circumstances, our shared humanity and common bonds are what allow us to survive and thrive.
