Title: Personal history and honor blend together
Product review: From the first page to the last I was hooked. The glimpses you get of China are different from what we see on news. At the same time you get a glimpse of what an impact it made on the life of a young girl now a woman and a male youth on the verge of adulthood. You also get a glimpse of how this country helped to shape their codes of honor and what is the price of holding dear a country and honor to an individual. The sense of familial history and its importance in the continuity of life are scattered throughout the book. Choices of what cost honor are also embedded in the story. The characters fed well off of each other and the situations.
