How Much of These Hills is Gold: A Novel

by C Pam Zhang

Young adult · 1020L · 2020

Why we'd hand it over

A lyrical, historically ambitious novel about Chinese-American siblings during the Gold Rush that refuses sentimentality; rich on immigration and labor, but the fragmented structure and heavy themes demand a mature, patient reader.
