Reviews

" 'This book is one of the first in China to portray Wei-Hui's generation of urban women, born in the 1070s, as they search for moral grounding in a country of shifting values... Wei-Hui sees herself as a feminist helping her generation of women understand themselves.' New York Times 'A steamy Chinese novel in the Western style about life in contemporary China... condemned for exploring subjects that are completely taboo in modern Chinese literature.' The Times 'Wei Hui is intelligent and a passionate spokesperson for the women of modern China.' Marie Claire"
