Filled with love and food, this story of the Hawaiian Wong family is an exuberant banquet of characters and stories. "(A Little Too Much Is Enough) vividly recreates Honolulu after World War II. . . . When the author gets around to describing the brutal fields and cannaries where Mahi and her brother labor in the service of Hawaii's most famous fruit, it's a revelation. You'll never look at a can of pineapple in the same way again".--Deborah Stead, New York Times Book Review. A PNBA Best Book of the Year.
