For 11 years An-Ya has left the diary blank as she patiently waited in China for her biological family to return.Ultimately, after her adoption to America, she feels compelled to write her story down. Inside her diary she strives to connect the two severed worlds in which she has lived. An-Ya's story is one of incredible loss, filled with painful transitions and longed for hope.
