About the Bookworms Library
"At the centre of each of these stories is a family. Husbands and wives, mothers and sons, mothers and daughters -- all families have the same problems, the same worries, the same arguments. Nimei in northern China has been married for seventeen years, but a letter from an old flame in her past turns her life upside down. In Singapore, Mr Li is caught between the past and the future, between his old mother and her memories, and his modern young daughter. He wants to be a respectful son, but he does not understand his mother's needs...
High in the Himalayas, Pritam understands her mother very well, perhaps too well. Her mother does not understand Pritam at all, but only knows that she misses her daughter and wants to be close to her, as all mothers do..." (p. 1)
