Digging to America
Book • 1998
Digging to America explores themes of family, identity, and cultural assimilation through two families connected by adoption.
The Yazdans, an Iranian-American family, and the Donaldsons, a WASP family, both await the arrival of their adopted daughters from Korea.
As the girls grow, the families navigate cultural differences, generational conflicts, and the complexities of what it means to belong.
Tyler's novel gently examines the challenges and joys of creating a family across racial and cultural boundaries.
Through humor and warmth, she shows how traditions evolve and new connections can be forged.
