TRES GENERACIONES DE MUJERES CHINAS EN BUSCA DE RESPUESTAS PARA EL DUELO, EL AMOR, EL EXILIO, LA IDENTIDAD Y EL PERDÓN

CÓMIC DEL AÑO -Time - The Guardian - NPR - Library Journal - Kirkus Reviews - New York Public Library - Indigo

FINALISTA. -Andrew Carnegie Medal. -Nonfiction Kirkus Prize

Tres generaciones de mujeres se reúnen en este cómic autobiográfico de Tessa Hulls: su abuela Sun Yi, una periodista perseguida tras la victoria de los comunistas en China; su madre, Rose, quien cargó durante años con el peso del exilio y el dolor, y ella misma, que al cumplir treinta años decidió rescatar la memoria de su familia.

Después de escapar de Shanghái en 1957, Sun Yi recaló con su hija en Hong Kong, donde escribió unas memorias sobre la persecución sufrida; un relato de supervivencia que se convirtió en un best seller inesperado. Al poco tiempo, sufrió una crisis nerviosa que la llevó a necesitar cuidados de por vida. Tessa creció viendo cómo su madre se ocupaba más de Sun Yi que de ella, y cómo iba oprimiéndolas a las tres la carga de los traumas silenciados.

Tras intentar escapar en vano de su pasado y vivir en los lugares más remotos del mundo, la autora volvió a casa sabiendo que, si quería cerrar sus heridas, debía narrar su historia familiar. Alimentar a los fantasmas es el resultado de diez años de trabajo intenso y profundo, un libro que retrata los mecanismos por los que el duelo se transmite de una generación a otra, y que celebra el amor necesario para mantenerlas unidas.

"Feeding Ghosts reminds us how much the personal is political . . . an audacious, awe-inspiring feat. For me, it was an essential read." ―Ling Ma, author of Bliss Montage

An astonishing, deeply moving graphic memoir about three generations of Chinese women, exploring love, grief, exile, and identity.

In her evocative, genre-defying graphic memoir, Tessa Hulls tells the story of three generations of women in her family: her Chinese grandmother, Sun Yi; her mother, Rose; and herself.

Sun Yi was a Shanghai journalist caught in the political crosshairs of the 1949 Communist victory. After eight years of government harassment, she fled to Hong Kong with her daughter. Upon arrival, Sun Yi wrote a bestselling memoir about her persecution and survival, used the proceeds to put Rose in an elite boarding school―and promptly had a breakdown that left her committed to a mental institution. Rose eventually came to the United States on a scholarship and brought Sun Yi to live with her.

Tessa watched her mother care for Sun Yi, both of them struggling under the weight of Sun Yi's unexamined trauma and mental illness. Vowing to escape her mother's smothering fear, Tessa left home and traveled to the farthest-flung corners of the globe (Antarctica). But at the age of thirty, it starts to feel less like freedom and more like running away, and she returns home to face the history that shaped her family.

Extensively researched and gorgeously rendered, Feeding Ghosts is Hulls's homecoming, a vivid journey into the beating heart of one family, set against the dark backdrop of Chinese history. By turns fascinating and heartbreaking, inventive and poignant, Feeding Ghosts exposes the fear and trauma that haunt generations, and the love that holds them together.

Came apart.
Color: Cherries
We were playing with it and the green part pulled off of the red part. I'm pretty sure that is not supposed to happen. I took the green part away from the dog because that part is too small for my pup to play with. But we continue to play with the red part. My dog likes the texture and the bounciness.

Caution - handle comes off!
Color: Cherries
I really liked this toy when I opened package--our dog liked as well! Until a short time ago when I saw her chewing on the green "stem"! The stem had come apart from the main cherries. This is a small enough part that I think she or any bigger dog could choke on. Our dog is a small lab. Would not recommend buying.

Great for chewing and fetching
Size: Small (9 in), Style: 2 Knot Rope Bone, Size: Small (9 in), Style: 2 Knot Rope Bone
My puppy was chewing everything and this satisfied her urge to chew. As a bonus she also loves playing fetch with it. The rope is about 8 inches long overall, but only about 3 inches from the insides of one knot to the inside of the other knot. This is great for a puppy or small dog. My puppy loves to chew on this rope, especially at the knots. When we first got this rope we could play tug of war with it, but as she has grown, we eventually needed a longer rope for safety playing tug of war so my hands don’t get too close to her mouth. We have had this one for about 3 months and it is holding up really well. It has survived the washing machine nicely. My puppy is a chihuahua mix and is currently 7 months old and about 10 pounds. She is probably an average chewer. Definitely not a dog that destroys a toy in a day.
