Eat a Bowl of Tea

[nice tight copy, no significant wear, light browning to pages; jacket shows light scuffing/soiling, mostly to rear panel, short diagonal crease at bottom corner of front flap]. "Their marriage rites were beautiful, in the tradition of old China. Their honeymoon was exquisite -- until the bridegroom mysteriously lost his sexual powers. [This novel] is a compelling story of life in the Chinese-American community of New York City. Its pages come alive with the maneuvers of the Tong leaders, the colorful visitors to the Money Come mah-jong club house, the gossip of closely-knit Chinatown." Basis for the 1989 film of the same name, adapted by Judith Rascoe and directed by Wayne Wang.
