Orphan Bachelors: A Memoir

Fae Myenne Ng's memoir "Orphan Bachelors: A Memoir" is a profoundly personal investigation of the author's Chinese family history and the influence of US immigration rules on her relatives. Ng investigates her relatives' life, beginning with her great-grandfather, who was denied citizenship as a result of the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. The story chronicles her father's struggle to avoid exclusion in 1940 by assuming another person's identity, and the ramifications that occurred inside the family.
