It was the most shocking Chinese fiction I have ever read. The family of the author all lived in the hell. I wonder if Ms.Chang is happy now in U.K. Does anyone know?

The Wild Swans should be one of the trilogy of the modern history of China. Another two are the Sorrow Mountain by Ani Pachen and the Life and Death in Shanghai by Nien Cheng. These era of the Chinese history had been strictly in concealment and covered with severe censorship. This book is a history of a family of three generations and from their points of view, we could watch hear and feel the intolerable horror that had happened everywhere in China. Starving to death, torturing to death and being killed without any reason, everywhere everyday on every people. Now Miss Jung Chan would guide us into the black hole China. Could you keep yourself calm enuogh to read on? For your relief, I would say that a little great man has saved the people from those confusion and made the foundation of prosperity now in China. If the book belongs to you, you may cut it into three pieces. So handy. With woulｄ-like-to-write-like-this english, a little British taste, she had just tried to put on her family history methodically and that made this book the best outstanding and trustworthy gate into the black hole China.
