DMae Roberts' book The Letting Go Trilogies: Stories of a Mixed-Race Family traces four decades of what it means to be a mixed-race adult who sometimes called herself "Secret Asian Woman." With her personal essays written over a ten-year period, Dmae journeys through biracial identity and her interracial Taiwanese and Oklahoman family amid love, loss and letting go of past regrets and grief.
