Ma in All Caps

MA IN ALL CAPS book is a laugh-out-loud hilarious “ma-moir” about an irrepressible woman known to the world as “Ma.” Epic and sweeping in its storytelling, but as intimate as a son’s love for his ailing mother, it’s David Sedaris meets Amy Tan in a family saga with an unforgettable tiger mom holding center stage.

Ma is the opinionated matriarch of the Chinese Kuo clan, the scion of a once wealthy and powerful Chinese family that lost everything during two devastating wars and has been struggling since to regain its former glory. Ma brings you into the Kuo family through her unfiltered storytelling spanning five generations, three centuries, and two continents, leaving you amazed by her wit and bluntness while charming you with her inimitable way of looking at and judging the world.
