Sandra | 336 comments I may have read this book in the early 1980s, but it might have been later. It was written by a former nun and it's non fiction. It's a memoir of her years in the convent. She eventually left, and married a Chinese-American man (possibly Chinese immigrant?). I remember at their wedding ceremony they exchanged rings engraved with the Chinese symbol for Double Happiness.

The author is American.

Any idea what book this is?

by Mary Gilligan Wong?

Yes! That's it! I remember now, it had a plain cover. Sadly, I just found out the author passed away a couple years ago.
