The Unwinding of the Miracle

The Unwinding of the Miracle

by Julie Yip-Williams

'The Unwinding of the Miracle' is the astonishing memoir of Julie Yip-Williams, born blind in Vietnam and marked for death by her own grandmother. Julie's story is one of remarkable survival: from escaping death as an infant to enduring a harrowing journey as a refugee, and finally emerging as a Harvard-educated lawyer in America. Battling through obstacle after obstacle, Julie's life epitomizes resilience and determination. Yet, when confronted with a diagnosis of terminal cancer at thirty-seven, she embarks on her most profound journey — confronting mortality and documenting her unfiltered experiences in raw, luminous prose. This is not simply a chronicle of cancer, but a rich tapestry of existence — uplifting, devastating, and a profoundly human examination of life and our legacies.
