Goddess
of Learning
An earlier version of this story appeared in the anthology, New to
North America: Writing by U.S. Immigrants, Their Children and Grandchildren,
a collection of fiction, essays, poetry and memoir that documents
the experiences and contributions of three critical generations from
immigrant to second generation American. A new edition of New to
North America will be published soon and will include the revised
version of "Goddess of Learning." For more information,
