Incorporating her own story about the death of her two sons, this story is about a mother who loses her only child when the fifteen year old lies down on a train track. Traveling in the Netherlands, she recalls her mother's cruelty to her after that death and how her failure to form a relationship with her mother may have contributed to her daughter's death.
Li has a new book out about her double death. It was reviewed last week in the NYT Book Review. This collection was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.
