At first glance, Ayu Suhana’s story seems familiar—an Asian immigrant who married an American Caucasian man and is now raising her child as a single mother in a foreign country. Her story is not a happy one—it’s about struggle, about fighting through the ups and downs and holding back the tears—but Ayu shares this inspirational story to help other women in the same situation. How America Treated Me is surprisingly upbeat and entertaining as well. With humor, heart, and honesty, Ayu describes surviving in a new country and culture, being a single mom, and finding her own identity.
