When Marget reaches the orderly house of her Dutch-Indonesian grandmothers, she learns that if she only pays attention to them, then she can go unnoticed herself. And that is exactly what she needs. Marget is pregnant and alone. With her dancing career over and her mother absent, as always, Marget must decide for herself whether it is wise to continue the raveling line of her extended family. Like Amy Tan before her, Dressler tells a powerful story about a family of women, not all related by blood, who manage despite their differences to provide one another sanctuary.
