Loose yourself in a different world with this emotional and sensitive story. Well written and highly recommended, I am certainly looking forward to reading other titles by this author. It really gives an insight of what life was like for Chinese women during this period.
Synopsis:
Focusing on the life of one woman, this book spans the years from pre-Revolutionary China to present day America. It covers the themes of cultural differences, the problems of exile, the generation gap and above all the special relationship between mothers and daughters.
