Wild
Swans: Three Daughters of China |
|
| |
by
Jung Chang |
|
| |
If you only read one
book about modern China …
This lengthy family saga,
following the fortunes of three generations of Chinese
women, is often harrowing, but is gripping to the final
word. Covering the period from the end of the Ching
Dynasty to the last days of Chairman Mao's rule, Wild
Swans evokes the great changes that shook China during
this period. If you only read one book about modern
China, read Wild Swans.
