She begins with a hard fact: Peter Wong, the man she calls Papi to this day, was paid to marry her mother, Lupe, so Lupe's family could get green cards. "I wish I could tell you a loving story,” writes Wong near the beginning, “a cross-cultural heart-filled fest of American melting-pot dreams, of how a teenage Dominican immigrant girl ended up married to a thirty-something Chinese immigrant man, but no." In 12 chapters named for answers to the titular question-".Because We Lost Our Way," ".Because I Thought We Had Time," etc.-the author traces the often maddening story of her quest for truth in a warmly immediate narrative voice.
