About This Book

21-year old Marissa's zine "Po-Po" ("meaning 'grandmother from the mother's side' in Mandarin") features an interview between Marissa and her grandmother (with interpretation between Mandarin and English provided by Marissa's mother), illustrated with family photographs and other memorabilia. Po-Po recounts scenes from her childhood, speaks of her and her husband's experiences of migration due to war (the Sino-Japanese War and the Chinese Communist Revolution), and of her experience working and taking care of her family in the United States. The zine is tape-bound with a pink heart-shaped doily.
