 n<p><em>The residents of Haven\, Wisconsin\, have dined on the Fine&nbsp\;
 Chao&nbsp\;restaurant's delicious Americanized Chinese food for thirty-fiv
 e years\, happy to ignore any unsavory whispers about the&nbsp\;family&nbs
 p\;owners.</em></p>\n<p><em>But when brash\, charismatic\, and tyrannical 
 patriarch Leo&nbsp\;Chao&nbsp\;is found dead &mdash\; presumed murdered &m
 dash\; his sons find they've drawn the exacting gaze of the entire town.</
 em></p>\n<p><em>The ensuing trial brings to light potential motives for al
 l three brothers: Dagou\, the restaurant's reckless head chef\; Ming\, fin
 ancially successful but personally tortured\; and the youngest\, gentle bu
 t lost college student James.</em></p>\n<p><em>Brimming with heartbreak\, 
 comedy\, and suspense\, The&nbsp\;Family Chao&nbsp\;offers a kaleidoscopic
 \, highly entertaining portrait of a Chinese American&nbsp\;family&nbsp\;g
 rappling with the dark undercurrents of a seemingly pleasant small town. "
 At once a brilliant reimagining of Dostoevsky and a wholly original and gr
 ipping story about the passions\, rivalries\, and searing pressures that r
 oil a singular immigrant&nbsp\;family."</em></p>\nhttps://akronlibrary.lib
