I'm Showing You How Big the Sky Is: The Story of Chiou Taur Wu Told by Martina Bacigalupo

I'm Showing How Big the Sky Is" by Martina Bacigalupo tells Chiou Taur Wu's story of resilience as she embraces a newfound curiosity, captured through years of correspondence.

I'm Showing How Big the Sky Is is Martina Bacigalupo's tribute to her former nanny, Chiou Taur Wu, a Taiwanese woman who lived over three decades in Italy. Despite a harsh life--from working in fields and factories to managing her husband's gambling debts -- Chiou remained resilient. At almost 70, she returned to Taiwan, resumed her studies, took dance classes, and began traveling.

Through hundreds of photos from Chiou during ten years of correspondence, Bacigalupo presents a story of extraordinary resilience. Told in the first person, with Chiou's images and words, the book is a celebration of freedom, humor, and poetry.
