    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    'Lyrical, haunting and profoundly moving, Nothing to My Name is a story of survival, identity and the fragile hope that passes from mother to daughter' ?Jean Kwok

    'Nothing to My Name lives honestly in its history - foolhardy and loving and yet uncharted. A formidable and astonishing new voice' T. Kira Madden

    'A gripping story of family bonds, redemption and triumph. A masterful debut!' Marcela Fuentes

    1948, Zhoushan, China. Twelve-year-old Ah Xue watches her mother earn a living combing the hair of the wealthy women in their small fishing village, as reports of civil war and the rising Communist revolution grow closer to home.

    Years later, Mimosa grows up in the shadow of her parents' struggles, while the looming tension of the Cultural Revolution threatens to pull her family apart.

    And Fei, raised as a boy by the activist father she can't help but idolise, grapples with her identity in the aftermath of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.

    Spanning four decades and three generations, Nothing to My Name braids an unforgettable story of the ordinary women caught in the tides of societal upheaval, but bound by an insuppressible instinct to survive. From an astonishing new writer, it explores with remarkable tenderness the enduring repercussions of trauma, the search for stability in disorder, and the often contradictory nature of familial love.
