Description:

This new edition includes 8 new haibun/ chapters, a haiga with picture, more haiku, and web-links to an interview and a video. In 1935, two year old Nona Mock Wyman was abandoned at the Ming Quong Home, a Chinese girl’s orphanage in Los Gatos, California. Now, eighty-three year old Nona captures her life (after the orphanage) in Walnut Creek, California. Ten Thousand Flowers is told with honesty and truth, sprinkled with refreshing humor. It captures fascinating stories and lessons learned emanating from the forty-seven years as the owner of Ming Quong, a store in suburban Walnut Creek dating back to the 1960’s. Simply told, Nona’s memoirs are written in ‘haibun’ form (prose with haiku). Haiku from Nona, customers and friends are included. History is recorded with stories of Walnut Creek’s bustling growth. ‘Ming Quong’ is the oldest existing store on Main Street and named one of the '7 Wonders of the East Bay.'
