Summary:
"Aware of the racial tumult in the years after the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act, Mei tries to remain blissfully focused on her job, her close friendship with the camp foreman's daughter, and telling stories about Paul Bunyan--reinvented as
Po
Pan Yin (
Auntie
Po
), an elderly Chinese matriarch. Anchoring herself with stories of
Auntie
Po
, Mei navigates the difficulty and politics of lumber camp work and her growing romantic feelings for her friend Bee. The
Legend
of
Auntie
Po
