Author Qu, Anna, author.

Description283 pages (large print) ; 23 cm.

Abstract:"As a teen, Anna Qu is sent by her mother to work in her family's garment factory in Queens. But instead of acquiescing, Qu alerts the Office of Children and Family Services, an act with consequences that impact the rest of her life. Nearly twenty years later, estranged from her mother and working at a Manhattan tech startup, Qu requests her OCFS report. When it arrives, key details are wrong. Faced with this false narrative, and on the brink of losing her job as the once-shiny startup collapses, Qu looks once more at her life's truths, from abandonment to an abusive family to seeking dignity and meaning in work"-- Back cover.
