Under The Towering Tree

What if you were told a devastating secret, a secret that had been guarded from you for thirty years, which shattered your view of your family and your marriage forever? Bilingual writer Annabel Annuo Liu chose to bury the secret and maintain the family faade. More than twenty years later, however, struggling to make sense of her life, she wrote her tenth book, the second volume of her memoirs.

Unflinchingly candid and powerful, Under the Towering Tree: A Daughter's Memoir is a story within a story. It depicts the startling and heartbreaking family intrigue lurking beneath Liu's seemingly calm, content, and well-established life. Spanning four generations and two cultures, it is a portrait of a marriage, a family psychological drama, a mystery story, and a survivor's tale.
