Three weeks before his 57th birthday a novelist receives a startling phone call: he has been adopted. Paper Shadows traces the aftershocks of that revelation as memories, family stories and buried secrets are reexamined.
Balancing intimate recollection with cultural portraiture, the book revisits life in prewar Chinatown and the communities that shaped a childhood. The narrative draws connections between the author’s imaginative work and the unexpected discoveries of his own past.
Readers drawn to personal histories, explorations of identity, and literary memoir will find a thoughtful, quietly powerful account here. The prose moves between investigative curiosity and elegiac reflection, offering fresh angles on family, belonging and memory.
