The memoir is equal parts travelogue, family history, and cultural exploration. Oanh Ngo Usadi takes you on her journey of home and belonging through the prism of language, cuisine, and class. In the multi-cultural, multi-ethnic island where language plays a central role in shaping identities and forging connections "Hawker Dreams" is a celebration of the ties that bind us to a place, no matter where we call home.
