This is an immensely captivating autobiographical book about Chinese culture as seen through Jung Chang during the Communist revolution and the reign of Mao. The personal histories of her family members and acquaintances tell a more complete story than history books can provide.
Very much an eye-opening book. Am wishing for something like this portraying someone's story since the 1980's.
