An immigrant mother's long-held secrets upend her daughter's understanding of her family, her identity, and her place in the world in this powerful and dramatic memoir "Riveting . . . [Wong] tells her story in vivid conversational prose that will make readers feel they're listening to a master storyteller on a long car trip. . . . Hers is a hero's journey."--The New York Times Book Review ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: PopSugar, Kirkus Reviews My mother carried a powerful secret. A secret that shaped my life and the lives of everyone around me in ways she could not have imagined. Carmen Rita Wong has always craved a sense of belonging: First as a toddler in a warm room full of Black and brown Latina women, like her mother, Lupe, cheering her dancing during her childhood in Harlem. And in Chinatown, where her immigrant father, "Papi" Wong, a hustler, would show her and her older brother off in opulent restaurants decorated in red and gold. Then came the almost exclusively white playgrounds of New Hampshire after her mother married her stepfather, Marty, who seemed to be the ideal of the white American dad. As Carmen entered this new world with her new family--Lupe and Marty quickly had four more children--her relationship with her mother became fraught with tension, suspicion, and conflict, explained only years later by the secrets her mother had kept for so long. And when those secrets were revealed, bringing clarity to so much of Carmen's life, it was too late for answers. When her mother passed away, Carmen wanted to shake her soul by its shoulders and demand: Why didn't you tell me? A former national television host, advice columnist, and professor, Carmen searches to understand who she really is as she discovers her mother's hidden history, facing the revelations that seep out. Why Didn't You Tell Me? is a riveting and poignant story of Carmen's experience of race and culture in America and how they shape who we think we are.

"A CURSE! AN UTTER CURSE!""Many of you, 'Parents', have exposed this book unto your families. Same thing with my mother. She exposed this story to me. But you know what I see in this book of evil? Scary images and ideas. Look at the dog for instance. Does he look like a 'nice' dog to you? He didn't to me. He scarred the buttons of my shirt. Everytime I look at his eyes I fill with fear."

Must Read books for everyone ~ You Should Read These Even if You Aren’t Into Reading
One of Vanity Fair's Books That Will Get You Through This Winter “One of the most uniquely fun and campily gory books in my recent memory... A Certain Hunger has the voice of a hard-boiled detective novel, as if metaphor-happy Raymond Chandler handed the reins over to the sexed-up femme fatale and really let her fly." —The New York Times Food critic Dorothy Daniels loves what she does. Discerning, meticulous, and very, very smart, Dorothy’s clear mastery of the culinary arts make it likely that she could, on any given night, whip up a more inspired dish than any one of the chefs she writes about. Dorothy loves sex as much as she loves food, and while she has struggled to find a long-term partner that can keep up with her, she makes the best of her single life, frequently traveling from Manhattan to Italy for a taste of both. But there is something within Dorothy that’s different from everyone else, and having suppressed it long enough, she starts to embrace what makes Dorothy uniquely, terrifyingly herself. Recounting her life from a seemingly idyllic farm-to-table childhood, the heights of her career, to the moment she plunges an ice pick into a man's neck on Fire Island, Dorothy Daniels show us what happens when a woman finally embraces her superiority. A satire of early foodieism, a critique of how gender is defined, and a showcase of virtuoso storytelling, Chelsea G. Summers’ A Certain Hunger introduces us to the food world’s most charming psychopath and an exciting new voice in fiction.

How to Disappear and Start a New Life, How to Get a Completely New Identity, How to Delete yourself From the Internet My name is Raymond Phillips; I graduated in 1996 with a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice. After graduating, I went to work for a private security firm as an analyst and during my time there I was assigned to a big corporate client who was involved in some illegal activities and unfortunately I was exposed to their actual act of crime. Afterward, I found myself running for my own safety and had to disappear seven years ago. Just two years ago the issues were finally resolved as they got exposed by the law enforcement and that business entity no longer exists and I was able to reappear. I sacrificed five most valuable years of my life running from them. In those five long years I used many innovative methods to keep myself from everyone and was able to stay alive, and since I got back, I started a new business as a top notch privacy expert, I now work as a consultant for a few large multinational businesses. I started writing this book while I was away to help people that find themselves in similar situations for whatever reasons, but after writing a few chapters, I realized it would be impossible for me to publish it as I would leave enough paper trail which can jeopardize my own safety again. So I put the project on the back burner and forgot about it. Recently I was looking through some of the old files that I kept on a flash drive and found the file containing those chapters and decided to complete the book as I knew in my heart that this book could help some truly good and honest people to stay safe. But when reading through the files I realized how much have changed in last few years, so I deiced to rewrite the whole thing. This book is essentially two books combined into one complete guide. Originally my plan was to write the first book just on how to disappear from society while erasing all the trails and the second one all about how to start a new life, but then I decided since they go hand in hand why not combine them both so you can have one handy guidebook if you ever need to get away like I had to. Here is a preview of what you will learn: Reasons people disappear How to disappear with children 3 Most Important parts of disappearing Short term Vs. Long term disappearance The importance of Disappearance Steps to take for long-term disappearance Steps to take for short time disappearance 5 Ways to disappear for the short term 21 Top disappearing destinations in the world How to Throw out the 'Old you.' How to prepare yourself Essential items you need to pack How not to leave any trace behind How to cover your tracks Steps to take to start a new life How to protect your physical privacy and safety How to get a new identity legally 5 Ways to use your new identity 3 types of Ghosters How to find jobs in your new life How to find food while on the run How to do anonymous banking How to have financial privacy and security How to live under the radar How to wipe yourself from the Internet How to use the internet anonymously Hopefully, you never have to use any of this advice and ideas, but I am sure it will be a comfort knowing that in the event if you do see the need, you will know how to go about doing so. | Author: Raymond Phillips | Publisher: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform | Publication Date: Oct 23, 2016 | Number of Pages: 146 pages | Language: English | Binding: Paperback | ISBN-10: 153971330X | ISBN-13: 9781539713302
