ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane" by Lisa See tells the story of Li-yan, a young Akha woman in rural China, as she navigates the complexities of tradition and modernity. When she bears a child out of wedlock, she is forced to leave her baby at an orphanage, a decision that sets in motion a series of life-altering events.

As Li-yan adapts to the changing world, she discovers a passion for tea, eventually building a successful business. Despite her achievements, she is haunted by the loss of her daughter and embarks on a quest to find her. The novel delves into themes of family, identity, cultural preservation, and the impact of globalization on indigenous communities.
