Henry Award–Winning AuthorNing is a retired boxer, but to the customers who visit her nail salon, she is just another worker named Susan. On this summer's day, much like any other, the Susans buff and clip and polish and tweeze. They listen and smile and nod. But beneath this veneer, Ning is a woman of rigorous intellect and profound complexity. A woman enthralled by the intricacy and rhythms of her work but also haunted by memories of paths not taken and opportunities lost. As the day's work grinds on, the friction between Ning's two identities will gather electric and crackling force, and at last demand a reckoning with the way the world of privilege looks at a woman like Ning.
