Inouye explores a collection of items brought about through many long, conversations with her grandmother about her native country (China) and the people and stories that make up her past. The personal narratives in this collection represent not only the culture of China before the communist revolution, but also the lives of members of Chen Seiying's family. Inouye discusses stories, songs, games, material culture and food ways that all represent folklore unique to Chen Suiying's experiences in China. Created by Karin Mei Li Inouye when she was enrolled in English 391 in Spring 2003.
