Product Information
NATIONAL BESTSELLER Long-listed for PEN Open Book Award Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award for Autobiography Named a Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post , NPR, Time , The Boston Globe , Real Simple , Buzzfeed , Jezebel, Bustle , Library Journal , Chicago Public Library, and more "This book moved me to my very core. . . . All You Can Ever Know ] should be required reading for anyone who has ever had, wanted, or found a familywhich is to say, everyone." Celeste Ng, author of Little Fires Everywhere What does it mean to lose your roots--within your culture, within your family--and what happens when you find them? Nicole Chung was born severely premature, placed for adoption by her Korean parents, and raised by a white family in a sheltered Oregon town. From childhood, she heard the story of her adoption as a comforting, prepackaged myth. She believed that her biological parents had made the ultimate sacrifice in the hope of giving her a better life, that forever feeling slightly out of place was her fate as a transracial adoptee. But as Nicole grew up--facing prejudice her adoptive family couldn't see, finding her identity as an Asian American and as a writer, becoming ever more curious about where she came from--she wondered if the story she'd been told was the whole truth. With warmth, candor, and startling insight, Nicole Chung tells of her search for the people who gave her up, which coincided with the birth of her own child. All You Can Ever Know is a profound, moving chronicle of surprising connections and the repercussions of unearthing painful family secrets--vital reading for anyone who has ever struggled to figure out where they belong.

Praise for All You Can Ever Know "This book moved me to my very core. As in all her writing, Nicole Chung speaks eloquently and honestly about her own personal story, then widens her aperture to illuminate all of us. All You Can Ever Know is full of insights on race, motherhood, and family of all kinds, but what sets it apart is the compassion Chung brings to every facet of her search for identity and every person portrayed in these pages. This book should be required reading for anyone who has ever had, wanted, or found a family--which is to say, everyone." -- Celeste Ng, author of Little Fires Everywhere "This book will break your heart in all the best ways. Nicole Chung's intimate exploration of motherhood, race, and identity is a beautiful personal story that also reveals something profound about our culture and country.

The book is lovely, and loving, and committed to honesty and exploration. It never shies away from reality. Nicole's earnestness, her great capacity for affection, her commitment to dealing justly with others, her sense of humor are all vividly present here." -- Mallory Ortberg, author of The Merry Spinster: Tales of Everyday Horror "An urgent, incandescent exploration of what it can mean to love, and of who gets to belong, in an increasingly divided country.
