Synopsis
The poet Li-Young Lee was raised in Pennsylvania by his stern, Presbyterian minister father, a former personal physician to Mao and a prisoner under the Sukarno government. "The Winged Seed" is his memoir, beginning with a nightmare about his father, and then confronting this complex relationship and the pain of being an outsider in America.

Industry reviews
"Just as Maxine Hong Kingston did in 'The Woman Warrior', Li-Young Lee has broken the Chinese code that equates silence with filial piety. He looks to words now, to stories for understanding and redeption. 'The Winged Seed' will probably never be as popular as Kingston's book--it is too strange, too difficult. Its treasures don't spill forth on a first reading; it cannot be gobbled. Readers must approach slowly, as if the prose were poetry. But this is a beautiful book whose images will haunt the reader just as they do the writer."
Word - Lisa Sack (06/19/1995)

"[A] single seamless creative exhalation. A sensitive, subtle book that works like a symphony of rhythm and resonance, this nonchronological memoir weaves the story of Lee's Chinese family and their expulsion from Indonesia in a form where dreams are given equal weight with events, and imagination informs as much as stated history. Gorgeous beyond belief."
Salon - Janet Fitch (12/20/1999)
