Homeseeking by Karissa Chen

Homeseeking follows Haiwen and Suchi, childhood friends from Shanghai whose lives are pulled apart in 1940s China. Over six decades, war, migration, and new circumstances carry them separately to Hong Kong, Taiwan, New York, and California. Alternating between Haiwen’s present-day reflections and Suchi’s memories, the novel examines how choices, memory, and longing shape their search for home and belonging.
