the long version

Mahealani Suzanne Wong, the heroine of Kathleen Tyau's novel, grows up during the decades following World War II, surrounded by aunties and uncles, abundant food and vivid talk. Set in and around a Honolulu that is gradually changing from pineapple fields and beaches to suburban sprawl, A Little Too Much Is Enough brings to life Hawaii's characteristic blend of foreign country, exotic landscape, and island ways with small-city America - and against its backdrop portrays the struggles of a young girl discovering herself amid a large and complicated family.
