I actually purchased the entire 3 book, paperback prequel set from Amazon brand new, but the paperbacks had tiny print which was faded, making it difficult to read more than a few minutes at a time. Frustrated I returned them buying hard copies of each books. The book arrived quickly, was in great condition for being used and exactly what these poor old eyes needed. Thanks - a perfect eBay vendor who sends you exactly what’s described so you can trust the transaction. A+++ seller you can trust!

  • A compelling read.

    A detailed, lengthy story of three generations of women growing up in China, before, during, and after the Mao revolution. 3 extraordinary lives witness, and are an intimate part, of Chinese society. They see, feel and live out their lives in one of history's compelling eras. Because of the detail narrative not all readers will enjoy this type of story. At times, it is fascinating, at times, unbelievable, at times, too trivial in places.

  • Very intense book. A view into China that few know about.

    EVERYONE should know the history of China.
