Synopsis

Seventeen-year-old Lily Hu can’t remember exactly when the feeling took root—that desire to look, to move closer, to touch. Whenever it started growing, it definitely bloomed the moment she and Kathleen Miller walked under the flashing neon sign of a lesbian bar called the Telegraph Club. Suddenly everything seemed possible. But America in 1954 is not a safe place for two girls to fall in love, especially not in Chinatown. Red-Scare paranoia threatens everyone, including Chinese Americans like Lily. With deportation looming over her father—despite his hard-won citizenship—Lily and Kath risk everything to let their love see the light of day.

Description of Aunt Judy:

Judy Fong is Lily’s aunt, a mathematician who works on rockets. She is the most open-minded adult member of the family, and she and Lily share a close bond because of their shared interests. It is Judy who has the fortitude and compassion to come find Lily at Lana’s house and even to be polite to Lana, despite whatever discomfort or disapproval she may feel. Though Judy plays a role in taking Lily away from San Francisco, the book ultimately portrays Judy in a somewhat positive light when she tells Lily that she is going to try to understand what her niece is going through.
