| Re: Reading group crisis- Help! A fantastically moving portayal of China (sounds heavy but is amazing), is Jung Chang's Wild Swans.
I initially thought it was going to be the paper equivalent of a chick flick - how wrong I was.
The story of five generations of women from the days of concubines and warlords, through the cultural revolution up to the current day, Jung Chang charters her own, her mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmonthers and great, great grandmothers lives in the setting of one of the most 'advanced' eastern societies.
An amazing read.....
